What do you mean by “Xfce does not use /home/user/.giux-profile/bin
folder for those shortcuts”?  If you create a shortcut manually then you
could specify your Guix profile's directory, don't you?

I cannot reproduce the issue (I didn't update packages because of
virtual machine though).  Could you attach a screenshot with a window
where you specify Icecat or Pcmanfm-qt binary location, please?

Regards,
Oleg.
