Setuid programs are documented here: https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/guix.html#Setuid-Programs Following the "passwd" example, making "X" setuid root would be declared like this: (operating-system [...] (setuid-programs (cons #~(string-append #$xorg-server "/bin/X") %setuid-programs)) It's not clear to me how to improve this since it's very similar to how other defaults are overridden. Any suggestions? TIA!
