Dealing with common collisions in profiles

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello!

You’ve probably noticed that as soon as there’s a non-negligible number
of packages in a profile, there are collisions.  It’s really harmless,
but seriously annoying.  Here’s a collection of those I get:

  share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled
  share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache
  lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
  lib/perl5/5.16.1/x86_64-linux/perllocal.pod

Federico, I know ‘glib-or-gtk-build-system’ builds the first 3 items on
purpose, but what do you think can be done about them?  At worst we
could always change (guix build profiles) to not report collisions for
those.

The .pod files are used by ‘perldoc’ IIUC.  What can be done about them?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
