Re: Integrate Guix GUI programs into foreign distro's desktop?

[Hartmut Goebel]

Hi,

What I do is to ensure that I have the path to the
Guix binaries configured properly:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
export PATH="$HOME/.config/guix/current/bin:$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"


Thanks, anyhow this does not lock like what I' seeking. I want to add 
GUI programm, which are isntalled in a profile, while your example only 
adds guix itself - not any profile.


And what about not GUIC_LOC_PATH,  XDG_*_DIRS,  and all the other 
env-vars. How to avoid conflicts with QTDIRS5, QT_PLUGIN_PATH?

You'd just run "guix install ". FWIW, I
use Guix as my daily driver(but running on
ArchLinux)

What I do is to ensure that I have the path to the
Guix binaries configured properly:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
export PATH="$HOME/.config/guix/current/bin:$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

Best to have that as part of your .zshrc or
.bashrc file. So whenever you install the GUI
apps(for example-- in my case-- I use Emacs), your
system first checks for it in your guix path.

HTH!

Integrate Guix GUI programs into foreign distro's desktop?

[Hartmut Goebel]

Hi,

I'd like to use a Guix profile containing some GUI programs (esp.
ungoogle-chromium) as part of my foreign distro's desktop environment.

What is the correct way for doing so? What needs to be installed in the
profile to make this work smoothly?
