Now that you mentioned it — is this not root user’s channel list, and
one is not supposed to use guix as root?

I use home-channels-service-type and the only issue with this solution
is that it requires a 'guix home reconfigure' before the new channels
can be used in 'guix pull'.  Though one could also use the -C flag to
a channels.scm file including the list of channels.
