I don't understand, so you made the links for user 'glc', but then you check another user 'glc5'. If you run emacs under glc, and try "M-x guix-edit" there, you should be pointed to "~/.config/guix/latest". Since you didn't make such a link for 'glc5', you are pointed to the store. Anyway, you can configure any directory for "M-x guix-edit" by setting 'guix-directory' variable. See (info "(guix) Emacs Commands"). It is not in the hmtl manual yet. -- Alex
