Subject: [PATCH] guix-install.sh: Run guix.sh script in /etc/profile.d last.
Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2021 09:39:31 +0100
* etc/guix-install.sh: Rename /etc/profile.d/guix.sh to zzz-guix.sh.

This script refers to environment variables set by the host distribution.
They may be set in other scripts in /etc/profile.d, which must therefore
be run first.
Example: in Ubuntu 20.04, XDG_DATA_DIRS is set in
/etc/profile.d/xdg_dirs_desktop_session.sh
