You could come up with an OS config that uses network manager instead of
Wicd, and then test that with ‘guix system vm’.

It won’t tell you if NM would work “in reality”, but it would catch
basic issues.

The patches look good, but I don't know how to test the service from
within my Guix source tree.

After updating the nm pair, someone could try the service and see if
there was improvement over the 1.2.x state.



[PATCH] Update networkmanager+nm-applet

2016-10-14 Thread ng0
 [PATCH 1/2] gnu: network-manager: Update to 1.4.2.
 [PATCH 2/2] gnu: network-manager-applet: Update to 1.4.2.

Update to 1.4.2 for both, nm-applet is build without WWAN support until we have 
glib updated to 2.50,
which should be done in core-updates if it isn't already being worked on.
