In general, we don't change upstream defaults in Guix except when it's required for portability or to fix really egregious problems (i.e. security bugs). This is different from distros like Debian that basically fork the software and make a huge number of changes to suit the package maintainer's taste. This keeps package maintenance relatively easy for us and ensures that important changes get pushed upstream so that all users can benefit. Having said that, this line wrapping thing is a very bad default, and I think we should change it. Nano is one of the editors in the GuixSD installer. It needs to be easy to use. If we change the default in our package, we need to file a bug upstream: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=nano
Agreed. :) -- Cheers Swedebugia
