I defined a package and I installed it. Now, I'm trying to delete that package,
but the following error is shown:
#+HEADER: :prologue "exec 2>&1"
#+HEADER: :epilogue ":"
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
guix gc -D
/gnu/store/r7l2scg74yd6pryrs2xbh268akhwl7qi-font-stkaiti-287399335ec1beb72062ce67c36eaa8bec35f386
; echo Exit code: $?
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
#+begin_example
finding garbage collector roots...
guix gc: error: cannot delete path
`/gnu/store/r7l2scg74yd6pryrs2xbh268akhwl7qi-font-stkaiti-287399335ec1beb72062ce67c36eaa8bec35f386'
since it is still alive
Exit code: 1
#+end_example
I have listed all referrers, but no referrer is shown.
#+HEADER: :prologue "exec 2>&1"
#+HEADER: :epilogue ":"
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
guix gc --referrers
/gnu/store/r7l2scg74yd6pryrs2xbh268akhwl7qi-font-stkaiti-287399335ec1beb72062ce67c36eaa8bec35f386
; echo Exit code: $?
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
#+begin_example
Exit code: 0
#+end_example
My question is: If there are no referres, then what is preventing that package
from being deleted using =guix gc -D=?
