Hi, I mark this bug as done since the documentation already contains how to uninstall.

The maintenance burden Bash vs Python is an opinion. :-) Well, a rewrite in Scheme/Guile would require to have Guile already installed to run such script. And that’s not an assumption I would do. ;-) > Well, guix pack is already scheme, right? Why couldn't it invoke uninstall > after > safely having completed packing the uninstall-victim-files ? Well, it’s appears to me an heavy hammer. The best seems to have an option displaying the files that need to be removed for uninstalling. Let’s discuss that on guix-devel. Because it’s not related to a bug. :-) Cheers, simon
