Yes, this is correct. A manifest declares the contents of a single profile. By passing a manifest file to “guix package -m” you tell it to only install the declared packages and remove everything else. You can instantiate different manifest to different profiles by also passing “-p /path/to/other/profile”. You can combine them in a session by source-ing each of the profiles’ “etc/profile” files. > Also: If I have more (beginner) questions, should I drop them all in one > mail or create separate threads It’s better to send separate emails. -- Ricardo
