;;; Comment:
;;;
;;; symlink-manager cares about xdg configurations and other files: it backs
;;; up files created by user, removes symlinks and directories created by a
;;; previous generation, and creates new directories and symlinks to files
;;; according to the content of directories (created by home-files-service) of
;;; the current home environment generation.
