I didn't know about c_rehash until now.  Interesting!  In the past, I've
defined my own certificate packages as described in my own separate
replies to this thread, and they worked even though I didn't invoke
c_rehash.  Could this simply have been because the software I use
happens to work even when the symlinks created by c_rehash don't exist?

It looks like the ca-certificate-bundle profile hook (defined in
guix/profiles.scm) doesn't currently invoke c_rehash.  Should it?
