Right, that store item did not exist.

OK.

If there=E2=80=99s a root pointing to the profile, and the profile no longer
exists, it could be that the root was created after the profile had been
deleted.  AFAIK that cannot happen in normal operation, so you=E2=80=99d re=

If there=E2=80=99s a root pointing to the profile, and the profile no longer

For my "master" and "staging" worktrees, it returns:
localstatedir='/var'

However, I've since done a full garbage collection and reconfigured, so
it doesn't really prove anything.

--list-live actually starts by printing this:

------
$ guix gc --list-live
finding garbage collector roots...
skipping invalid root from `/var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/guix-profile-197-link' to `/gnu/store/1ph7vxq4hhqr1hjkmgin16p1cqx3v904-profile'
determining live/dead paths...
[... and then the paths are printed ...]
------

And --list-roots does include the bogus profile, exactly as described in
the warning from --list-live:

------

Regarding the suspicious "/root/guix-profile-staging-1-link", it's
leftover from testing the staging branch. I created it with `guix
pull --branch=staging --profile=/root/guix-profile-staging`.

And, it's time to delete /root/.config/guix/latest :)

What does =E2=80=98grep ^localstatedir config.log=E2=80=99 return?

OK.

Alright.

So this is really weird.  AFAICS nothing has changed in this area.  You
could try building a new profile generation and then run things like
=E2=80=98guix gc --list-live=E2=80=99 to see if the profile (in /gnu/store)=
 is there,
and also =E2=80=98guix gc --list-roots=E2=80=99 to see if the profile itsel=
f (normally
/var/guix/profiles/per-user/$USER/guix-profile) is listed.

HTH,
Ludo=E2=80=99.

1) I could have misconfigured a checkout, although it is unlikely. I
don't see any incorrect './configure' invocations in my shell history.

2) I never use the guix-daemon from a Git checkout. Really! I don't even
know off-hand where the built guix-daemon is located. I would have to
find it.

3) I run `guix gc` several times per week.

Could it be that you (1) configured a checkout with the wrong
--localstatedir, (2) started guix-daemon from that checkout, and (3) ran
=E2=80=98guix gc=E2=80=99 or equivalent?

The =E2=80=98configure=E2=80=99 script normally prevents #1, but we never k=
now.

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.

I just talked with Leo on IRC and he thinks the following might be
related.

`guix` stopped working, now taking any arguments without effect. I
found out that the associated store item is empty!

$which guix
/home/thorwil/.config/guix/current/bin/guix
 
$ls -l /home/thorwil/.config/guix/current/bin/guix
... /gnu/store/xa1xx4gpnvvf4wpzx63v1swl7gvqyw5d-guix-command

$file /gnu/store/xa1xx4gpnvvf4wpzx63v1swl7gvqyw5d-guix-command
... empty

This is on just about 1 week old hardware, Ubuntu Unity 20.10, Kernel
5.8.0-38, no power failures, ext4 file system. No direct manipulation,
just using `guix pull`, updating, installing and removing packages.

Meanwhile, `sudo guix pull` still worked.

As suggested by Leo, I did:
$cd /var/guix/profiles/per-user/thorwil
$rm current-guix
$ln -s current-guix-4-link current-guix

(Trying to `ln -s current-guix-4-link current-guix` without moving
current-guix out of the way first, failed with:
"ln: failed to create symbolic link 'current-guix/current-guix-4-link':
Read-only file system".)

That's weird, right? Any ideas?

I noticed a change in the garbage collector performance recently.  It
seemed to slow down by a lot, with frequent pauses. I wonder if that
could be related?

Here are the generations of my current-guix profile (this is not the
profile that is broken):
