I have tested symlinks like below:
 
    feng <at> Guix ~/geeguix/geehome/dotfiles/rime/.emacs.d$ ls -al
    drwxr-xr-x 2 feng users 4096  1月22日 20:26 ./
    drwxr-xr-x 5 feng users 4096 11月 6日 19:20 ../
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 feng users   20  1月22日 20:26 rime -> ../.config/ibus/rime

and ../.config/ibus/rime is a directory, show error:

    guix home: error: regular file expected
