For clarification, which option applies?

  (a) IceCat does not appear in the application menu at all
  (b) or:
      IceCat does appear in the application menu, but its icon
      is missing (but there is still some text like ‘GNU IceCat webbrowser’)

What's the output of "echo $PATH"? Normally, $HOME/.guix-profile/bin
should be present in $PATH, but maybe somehow it isn't.

Also, what's the output of
  ls -l ~/.guix-profile/bin/icecat

and
  ls -l ~/.guix-profile/bin
?

Greetings,
Maxime.
