Hi, good to know that Tobias! I remember I did have to do stuff with the locales some time ago, so perhaps that is how I started messing around with stuff. Another part is trying to modularize profiles and making their programs available on the PATH. Also there was something about using Guix installed LyX with manually installed (not system package manager, not Guix, but downloaded tlmgr) complete TeXLive distribution. Oh, and I am on foreign distro. I should have mentioned that before, I think. Ooops. ^^'
Anyway, next system I set up, I will try, whether I can get by without setting anything at all ;-) 祝好, regards, Zelphir On 1/4/21 6:56 PM, Tobias Geerinckx-Rice wrote: > Hi Zelphir, Christophe, > > Zelphir Kaltstahl 写道： >> Some time ago I created this: >> https://notabug.org/ZelphirKaltstahl/guix-package-manager-tutorials/src/33f519f2517685106b71399993a7da94cad84d3b/dot-profile-file.org >> > > Thanks for sharing! > > Not directly related, but I just want to point out that you shouldn't > ‘need’ any of it just to make Guix go. > > Editing ~/.profile isn't a routine thing on a routine Guix > installation, although for some reason some people believe otherwise. > I'm not sure why.
