I have an issue with opening the links in Qt based applications, like
`lxqt-panel`, `qterminal` and I think all of the Qt based application. I mean,
I can't open the `file:///home/hamzeh/` in these applications. I get the
following error:
```
Launch failed
(/gnu/store/bi4m86lripz4fhhi4c34ylg5ckxsrqzs-xdg-utils-1.1.3/bin/xdg-open ....)
```
As you can see, it wants to run `xdg-open` from
`/gnu/store/bi4m86lripz4fhhi4c34ylg5ckxsrqzs-xdg-utils-1.1.3/` path and this
path isn't available. This `xdg-open` path has patched here:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/qt.scm?id=f868ed2a75b55400107b80fcc1e41dcfb6b3c28c#n447
So all of the application that are using `QDesktopServices::openUrl()` have
this issue, since this path has filled with wrong value in the `qtbase` package.
Also the `xdg-utils` is installed but in the different path, the correct and
current installed path is:
```
/gnu/store/0zdclmgw5gnpifwb7jyrmplrk13wp0yz-xdg-utils-1.1.3/
```
The workaround is installing the `xdg-utils` manually, but it's a temporary
solution since after running the `guix gc`, again I'll face with this issue.
Some details:
1. In the fresh install I have the `xdg-utils` in the store at this path:
```
$ ll /gnu/store/ | grep xdg-utils
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jan 1 1970
0zdclmgw5gnpifwb7jyrmplrk13wp0yz-xdg-utils-1.1.3/
```
and I can't open the links in Qt applications.
2. After installing the `xdg-utils` manually, two `xdg-utils` paths were added
to store:
```
$ ll /gnu/store/ | grep xdg-utils
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jan 1 1970
0zdclmgw5gnpifwb7jyrmplrk13wp0yz-xdg-utils-1.1.3/
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 1120 Jan 1 1970

dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jan 1 1970

zbvwka7a27baz22w8k78jyjkrqaxcc4v-xdg-utils-1.1.3.tar.gz.drv
```
there is no issue with opening the links at this state.
3. After running the `guix gc` the `xdg-utils` path are:
```
$ ll /gnu/store/ | grep xdg-utils
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jan 1 1970
0zdclmgw5gnpifwb7jyrmplrk13wp0yz-xdg-utils-1.1.3/
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 1120 Jan 1 1970

dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jan 1 1970
3g26il93p23p4fcg1hfn797n4blqh0f6-xdg-utils-1.1.3/
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 3739 Jan 1 1970
makz45834k44dg1x1h1v91nqib41wd91-xdg-utils-1.1.3.drv
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 5706 Jan 1 1970
mix35kkjk3prj2kwi96qx74biwqbmxx7-xdg-utils-1.1.3-guile-builder
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 1269 Jan 1 1970
sz8s218fxvq8hr1ikn4m8g1z3ydbprbs-xdg-utils-1.1.3.drv
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 909 Jan 1 1970
zbvwka7a27baz22w8k78jyjkrqaxcc4v-xdg-utils-1.1.3.tar.gz.drv
```
And in this state, again, there is an issue with opening the links:
```
Launch failed
(/gnu/store/bi4m86lripz4fhhi4c34ylg5ckxsrqzs-xdg-utils-1.1.3/bin/xdg-open ....)
```
And again I can install `xdg-utils`, it cause to adding
`bi4m86lripz4fhhi4c34ylg5ckxsrqzs-xdg-utils-1.1.3/` to store and the issue will
be fixed but after each `guix gc`, again I have the issue.
(1). I need to fix the issue permanently and also without installing
`xdg-utils` manually. How?
(2). Seems that `qtbase` are referring to a wrong path
(`bi4m86lripz4fhhi4c34ylg5ckxsrqzs-xdg-utils-1.1.3/`) here:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/qt.scm?id=f868ed2a75b55400107b80fcc1e41dcfb6b3c28c#n447
Why? and where does this wrong path come from?
(3) Why after installing the `xdg-utils` I have those new paths in my store?
And why after `guix gc` they will be deleted?
