What does ‘grep ^localstatedir config.log’ 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
‘guix gc --list-live’ to see if the profile (in /gnu/store) is there,
and also ‘guix gc --list-roots’ to see if the profile itself (normally
/var/guix/profiles/per-user/$USER/guix-profile) is listed.

HTH,
Ludo’.
