But it's not, as shown in the first post by Ricardo.
next-1.3.1-lib is directly referenced by the asdf build system, there is
no risk for it to disappear.

So I'm still wondering how "guix size" could show dependencies that
could potentially be garbage-collected.  Sorry if I'm missing the
obvious :p

Can we re-enable core compression for Next then?
