I just had to replace the line “exec gnome-shell” in my ~/.xsession file with “gnome-session” (no “exec”), which makes sure that the GNOME session manager is started. Epiphany connects to the GNOME session manager to read the session-wide network settings, including the SOCKS proxy settings. I think it will work out of the box if you’re not using a ~/.xsession file. -- Ricardo

Re: Including sources in guix archive --export
Hi Ludovic, On my system, $ guix build --sources=all hello /gnu/store/hbdalsf5lpf01x4dcknwx6xbn6n5km6k-hello-2.10.tar.gz $ guix build --source --sources=all hello /gnu/store/hbdalsf5lpf01x4dcknwx6xbn6n5km6k-hello-2.10.tar.gz whereas guix build --source --sources=transitive hello does give a (partial) list of dependencies. Did I miss something? I managed to get a list with partial overlap using the following¹: $ guix build --source --sources=transitive glibc-bootstrap gcc-bootstrap bootstrap-binaries bootstrap-tarballs Thanks! Georges Dupéron ¹ It's possible that since I was including stuff using wildcards; I accidentally dragged in more dependencies than was strictly needed.

Other web-browser for tor
Hello! I am using GNU IceCat, that has Network Settings for using proxy. I can use tor with it. I was using Abrowaser on trisquel, but GuixSD repository has no such: $ guix package -s abrowser $ I've found other browsers with `guix package -s 'web browser'` but all of that I've installed has no Network configurations . Epiphany, Dillo, Conkeror can't. Netsurf browser has network settings, but there is only http proxy, and I get this when type proxy: 127.0.0.1:9050 : "This is a SOCKs proxy, not an HTTP proxy." Which other free software browser can work on socks4 proxy? On trisquel I had Abrowser, but here it is only Icecat.

Woow. FWIW I’ve never experienced that on my UEFI/x86_64 laptop in the last couple of years. If you do find out more, I’d be curious to learn what it was! Ludo’.

Re: Custom kernel error: kernel module not found "xts" "/gnu/store/...-linux-custom-4.14.69/lib/modules"
Hello Pierre,
Pierre Neidhardt skribis:

> know what Guix is trying to do here.
There’s a list of modules that must be present in the initrd, specified
by the ‘initrd-modules’ field. By default that list is:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use(gnu system linux-initrd)
scheme@(guile-user)> %base-initrd-modules
$2 = ("ahci" "usb-storage" "uas" "usbhid" "hid-generic" "hid-apple" "dm-crypt"
"xts" "serpent_generic" "wp512" "nls_iso8859-1" "pata_acpi" "pata_atiixp"
"isci" "virtio_pci" "virtio_balloon" "virtio_blk" "virtio_net" "virtio_console"
"virtio-rng")
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
Since your kernel lacks the “xts” module, you may have to do:
(operating-system
;; …
(initrd-modules (delete "xts" %base-initrd-modules)))
HTH!
