Re: GNUsocial package?
Just out of curiosity, how do you override those directories? Is it something you configure at compile time, or some sly links? -- Sent from Emacs and Gnus

Nginx, for example, also needs writable directories, so we override the location of these directories to /var or /run. Something similar could be done with GNU Social. -- Ricardo GPG: BCA6 89B6 3655 3801 C3C6 2150 197A 5888 235F ACAC https://elephly.net

To install, I just cloned the git repo, and set up nginx with the proper document root. However, GNU Social requires some folders (such as file/) to be writable. It puts uploaded media files, among other things, in those directories. How would Guix handle this? In Guix, the entire package is in the store, and the store is read-only.
GNUsocial package?
Shouldn't it be rather easy to package GNUsocial? https://git.gnu.io/gnu/gnu-social/blob/master/INSTALL All we might need are some php dependencies, and the whole thing would be handled by a service anyway if we assume standard layouts of tables etc. It looks way easier than Mastodon which requires a container load of npm packages. Do we have someone among us who has GNUsocial admin/setup experience who could make a statement on the installation process? -- ng0 GnuPG: A88C8ADD129828D7EAC02E52E22F9BBFEE348588 GnuPG: https://n0is.noblogs.org/my-keys https://www.infotropique.org https://krosos.org signature.asc Description: PGP signature
