Hey Guix, I've already asked about this on IRC, but since the people responsible for the changes didn't seem to be present I'll ask here too. I use EXWM so I've installed ‘emacs’ and ‘emacs-exwm’ in my system profile. Additionally I've installed Emacs packages (‘emacs-org’, ‘emacs-pdf-tools’, ‘e

Starting SLiM on multiple ttys

2019-04-27 Thread Diego Nicola Barbato
Hello Guix, I would like to propose an enhancement to our SLiM service which would allow it to be started on multiple ttys (much like our mingetty service). I believe this would be useful for users who do not want to use GDM but still want to be able to run multiple graphical sessions at the same

Packaging Inferno

Hello Guix, I have written a package definition for Inferno and I would like to know if it would make sense to add it to Guix. I am asking because I am not sure if it is compatible with the FSDG (bundled fonts, trademarks, ...) and if it would be of any use to anyone. It builds reproducibly on m
