If you want, check out gnu/packages/fonts.scm and just copy the font-wqy-zenhei block and modify the url, name and checksum in the copy. Also, is there a reason wqy-microhei is marked "beta"? Is it not finished? What's the difference between wqy-microhei and wqy-zenhei? If you want to quickly build and use your own packages, the easiest is: $ mkdir -p ${HOME}/.local/guix/wip $ export GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=${HOME}/.local/guix Then put your own Scheme files in there, containing package definitions. They need to be valid Scheme modules. For example the (new) file ${HOME}/.local/guix/wip/fonts.scm should have the following header: (define-module (wip fonts) #:use-module (ice-9 regex) #:use-module (guix utils) #:use-module ((guix licenses) #:prefix license:) #:use-module (guix packages) #:use-module (guix download) #:use-module (guix build-system gnu) #:use-module (guix build-system trivial) #:use-module (gnu packages base) #:use-module (gnu packages compression) #:use-module (gnu packages fontutils) #:use-module (gnu packages perl) #:use-module (gnu packages pkg-config) #:use-module (gnu packages python) #:use-module (gnu packages xorg) #:use-module (gnu packages zip)) And then the package definitions should follow, in this manner: (define-public font-wqy-microhei (package (name "font-wqy-microhei") ...)) Replace "..." by what you copied from font-wqy-zenhai.
