So I deleted and built the emacs profile again using `guix package --

profile="${GUIX_EXTRA_PROFILES}"/emacs-profile`.
However, no luck. Still magit cannot be loaded. Still saying that:

Unable to activate package ‘magit’.
Required package ‘git-commit-3.3.0’ is unavailable

Not sure what else I can try.
Best regards,

I think there might be something fundamentally wrong here. On a pretty
recent git checkout (using pre-inst-env) I can `guix shell -C emacs
emacs-magit -E TERM -- emacs' and inside the spawned emacs (require
'magit) works without any issues.

I have now tried again with `guix environment` instead of using profiles. I
faced the same issue as with the profile. As soon as emacs-magit is installed
via guix, I get the error in the `*Messages*` buffer. Then I read about `guix
shell` and learned, that it is to replace `guix environment`. Didn't know that.
Guess I should change my usage. So that is what I did next. Changed the `guix
environment` command in my script to `guix shell`.
It should be reproducible using the following steps, unless guix itself has an
issue and creates non-reproducible environments:

However, I have now found out, that the `-C` flag is `--container`, which I am
not using! So I tried to use `--container` with the `guix shell` command and,
what a surprise, the error in Emacs disappeared!
Now of course the question is, how does `--container` affect the `emacs-magit`
package? What is Emacs reading, that affects Magit and even prevents it from
loading the dependency `git-commit`?
If I find out more, I'll let you know.
Best regards and thanks for the patience,
