Hello, thanks to pjotr's great notes about containers [1], I now know how to run a X-application in a guix container :-) Thanks pjotr!
I tried this with xcalc and got a "incomplete" window, see screenshot (yes, is this tiny thing is the complete window). Now I'm wondering what the reason for this is. It looks like xcalc is missing some dependencies? Addendum: I found out that xcalc is behaving the same when running in a normal environment. Also please note that I'm running guix on top of some host OS. To reproduce: ./pre-inst-env guix environment --ad-hoc xcalc -- xcalc [1] https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/CONTAINERS.org -- Regards Hartmut Goebel | Hartmut Goebel | h.goe...@crazy-compilers.com | | www.crazy-compilers.com | compilers which you thought are impossible |
