Removing ~/.kodi/ did not solve the issue.
Rolling back sufficiently far did help. My generations:
4 — kodi 18.0-ALPHA1 Git:20171106-nogitfound — works
5 — kodi 18.0-ALPHA1 Git:20171113-nogitfound — crashes
Fantastic feature this rolling back!
Sidenote: I see that the guix-profile symlink in
/var/guix/profiles/per-user/*/ is absolute; why no relative links?

I installed GuixSD 0.13.0. Hereafter, I have done a `guix pull` and
`guix package -u`, which resulted recently in
9 — kodi 18.0-ALPHA1 Git:20171113-nogitfound — crashes
That's six days ago; that's not that old, right?
