I'm wondering how many lines of perl code
actually would have to be translated to guile
to eliminate this perl dependency.
Does the perl code upstream get changed
too often to make keeping up an acceptable chore?

YOU WERE WARNED.

I thought maybe I could cheat and find a path into the cloned repo, since
all the magic has to be there somehow, but that way seems pretty kludgey.
Any help past this GnuTLS obstacle is welcome!
BTW, could I check out at a commit prior to the guile3 introduction
so that my distro might have a matching GnuTLS for that?
If so, which commit would be best?
In the meanwhile, back to hacking guix-install.sh :)
Thanks for reading.

If the problem is actually expired keys vs nonexistent,
gpg --refresh-keys
might be worth trying.

Didn't I just see a permissions-related bug reminiscent of this go by a short
while ago?
Could it be related? Do the dir/file perms look normal?

ge or file gets upgraded/revised/etc in any "distro"

[1] Is there such a thing as a derivation/service that sits and waits for such
a notification, and maybe sends you a patch when it does get notified?
Just curious how the world works :)

to do that).
Does anyone know if efibootmgr and coreboot see bios nvram compatibly?
Or a workaround?
I saw your post and am hoping to find a possibly similar 'chainloader'
solution, but worry that the second loader may mess incompatibly with bios
nvram.

Iffy, since calling the same thing by different names may reduce future naming
options,
and may muddy the peer-name namespace, so maybe consider using sub-commands
or -adverb.

This would enable safe booting via TFPT, without signatures, assuming you
checked and
trusted the vbr when you efibootmgr'd it. The UEFI could load speculatively and
display
a computed vbr for an image it loaded and didn't recognize. The user could then
check
the the web for a trusted opinion and bail or proceed (given UEFI password) to
accept
the new image and white-list it with one-shot trial boot if desired.
This would also be a nice way to validate a boot-to-guile image ;-)
