Dear,

As explained here [1], the field 'provenance' does not appear in
$PROFILE/manifest when using the option --manifest; but appears when
manually installing. Below instructions to reproduce the bug.

All the best,

The manifest contains:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(specifications->manifest
  '("emacs"
    "git"
    "guile"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


Let create 2 profiles: one using the --manifest option and the other
one by plain --install.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix package -m /tmp/manif.scm -p /tmp/kikoo-manif
guix package -i emacs git guile -p /tmp/kikoo-nomanif
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


And here we are...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
grep provenance /tmp/kikoo-manif/manifest

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

versus

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
grep provenance /tmp/kikoo-nomanif/manifest
        (provenance
        (provenance
        (provenance
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


For the record.

Fixed in c48e522fdbb7c749bbf6147e44c067bf1f916fdd.

Commit 975183a1c428198fe639fa37552ae069692b1f15 fixes a similar issue
with ‘guix pack --save-provenance --manifest’.

Thanks!
