Oh. Naive remarks. The ’guix’ in the manifest points to the correct
one with both channels.

Well, what appears to me weird is that the ’guix’ I type is incorrect
but points to a correct one.

Well, another way to express,
This is due to the fact that ‘-W’ (‘--nesting’) is implemented by adding
the outer ‘guix’ to the container’s profile, without also adding its
companion profile entries (those that provide channels).
is to note that the manifest file is incorrect and does not contain the
outer manifest file, right?
