Hi Guix,
So I'm installing GuixSD on an external USB hard drive.
This is obviously quite useful to test and setup all before you switch
to it. I plan to eventually install on laptop.
I could do it in a VM but...
Anyway, the install went flawless and docs are great.

Hi Guix,
There's been several mails and configs I've seen for dvorak
configuration.
Though, I can't seem to find any info or examples on how to configure
dvorak for grub. I have an encrypted boot and on boot up grub asks for
crypt passphrase as does the system on boot up.

Hi Guix :)
How does one import a root certificate for GuixSD?
I didn't see it in the manual.

Hi Guix,
I'm certainly not an expert on docker etc.
As per Arch Docker wiki [1] anyone added to docker group is root
equivalent.

So my guix offload to my build box used to work, no troubles.
As of late it fails. Perhaps due to an update, or because I renamed the

I think all is correct in terms of configuration but still fails with

One of the last packages I miss and would like on my Guix system would

I use it for work for testing infra as code.
Anyone else got a way to get it working? I'm surprised it's not yet

Hi Guix,
I've configured split DNS with dnsmasq and networkmanager and been using

Since a recent update this split DNS setup has stopped working.
Booting the older guix system confirms all just works. I'm not quite
sure what could be wrong.

hing wrong.
I've done the following
On tt1 I did =herd stop guix-daemon=
Then exported proxy like so:
export http_proxy=http://server.domain.co.za:8080/ ; export
ftp_proxy=$http_proxy ; export https_proxy=$http_proxy
=herd start guix-daemon=
=guix package -i something= and note the proxy is not working.
Try do the install =guix system init /mnt/etc/config.scm /mnt= and note
the proxy env is not being used.

Ship a sudo file and install it in =/etc/sudoers.d= though I'm not sure if
that's possible with Guix since it's kind of it it's own chroot. Unless it
supports post-scripts section and that gets executed as root (doubt it).
Hope the above makes sens
