It’s actually a different issue here: the profile contains packages that
provide share/guile/2.2, but the same profile doesn’t contain any
package that “claims” share/guile/2.2.  Thus, everything is working
according to plan, so to speak.

I understand this particular case is confusing though.  It’s confusing
because Guile is already installed, albeit in another profile.

What we could do to avoid this confusion is pre-define GUILE_LOAD_PATH
and GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH in /etc/profile, just like we do for
INFOPATH et al.

WDYT?
