I, for one, would be willing to review patches, hoping that in turn my
patches would be reviewed instead of staying in limbo forever, which is
a drag on me submitting more patches.
Is there a procedure to follow, or do I just start replying "LGTM" to

our problem. It solved mine: I had a quite complex
OS configuration to try out before deploying it on a VPS, and running
VMs is cumbersome a requires a lot of disk space. The OS configuration I
want to try implies running containers inside of containers, now it is
possible :)

Hi !
If you create you containers with guix shell, you can use the --nesting
option, or alternatively, use:
guix shell --container --network --expose=/gnu/ --share=/var/guix/ guix
Maybe similar options with a 'guix system'-generated container would
work.
Alternatively, if your own guix has a

Hi Kyle,
Running

and then
R
will get you the C-c handling you want.
There is indeed readline support with guix shell r -- R:
up arrow to get history, c-E, c-A for end of line, start if line, etc.
I think maybe the problem lies not with readline but with the way
signals are
My usual method is first: guix search, then: grep -ri in a checkout of
the source, and last searching the web for the package name in other
distros, and a bit of guesswork. It usually endup in a *-utils or

First, drop sudo, guix can be run by unprivileged users once installed,

As an example in this line of thought, a long time ago I submitted a
patch (since then reverted as it broke a lot of things) to use an
obsolete version of a python module, which was the only one that worked

Thank you both for solving this. I used a workaround for a while
(rsyncing the keys to /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys). Now I can
confirm that the fixes work and I'm back to a declarative configuration
of my server, which is awesome !

Sorry about the noise, but I'm curious about this as well, and I think

I won't be specifically helpful, but I never managed to get chromium to
run in a container. It crashes almost immediately. If you ever manage
it, I'd be happy to know the magic command that allows it.

Wow. Talk about a rabbit hole. I'd never would have found that alone.
I'll wait for the "tree-1" patch to appear on master.

You can pass the --profile option to most guix subcommands.

I side-step this kind of things by adding a stage in package-y that will

Plan 9 is awesome. What the whole industry is barely managing to achieve

I'm working on something similar, but with nginx. Basically you want to
make an operating-system definition, where you can orchestrate all the
layers of your stack, and then you can run it using `guix system

So I looked at the source and I understand that there's no way around
having only PATH=/run/current-system/profile/bin as the sole environment
of a service (which makes me wonder how anyone is running any service in
