Re: 2 Profiles with 2 different version of Musescore
In order to avoid manually updating the alias each time the package is
upgraded, you can use a declaration in guix home:
(home-environemnt
(services (list
(service home-bash-service-type
(home-bash-configuration (guix-defaults? #t)
(aliases `(("mscore4" . ,(file-append musescore
"/bin/mscore")
If you do not wish to use guix home, you could also use the extra-special-file
service in your system configuration:
(extra-special-file "/usr/bin/mscore4" (file-append musescore "/bin/mscore"))
Just make sure /usr/bin is in your $PATH.
Re: 2 Profiles with 2 different version of Musescore
Hi, thanks very much for your help. As a shorthand you could add an alias like this alias mscore4="/home/gfp/Projekte/pfad/zum/profil/mit/musescore4/bin/mscore" to .bash_aliases (if it is being 'source'd by bashrc) or.bashrc otherwise. (Put everything in one line. My mailclient automatically wraps long lines even if it should not do so in this case.) when you restart your shell (or type `source ~/.bashrc`) then mscore4 should execute musescore 4. - I put this in my .bashrc file #alias für Musescore4 alias mscore4="home/gfp/Projekte/Musescore/guix-profil/bin/mscore" then restarting the terminal it works. --- This was my first alias in my life I created, with your help, of course. --- So with the help of all of you I am somehow studying Informatik/ computer science peu a peu / little by little / in my spare time. _That’s great_.

You need to write down the absolute path to the musescore 4 executable. Something like /home/gfp/Projekte/pfad/zum/profil/mit/musescore4/bin/mscore should work.

My suggestion always points to the current version of the respective profile. I
did not point to the store entry of musescore.
