I like dates in "rolling release" version strings because they
immediately tell you how old/new the version is, but I can certainly
live with that format too. Definitely better than what we have.

Hi guix,
I have a profile with icecat, fontconfig and basic fonts, but the
browser seems not to find any font. It displays only
numbers-in-squares placeholders.
```
$ icecat
(/gnu/store/x9c8vysvvivx4bc1xa4gz7sl37y3i2k6-icecat-60.3.0-gnu1/lib/icecat/.icecat-real:3240):

export
XDG_DATA_DIRS="$HOME/.guix-profile/share${XDG_DATA
