Hello:
I wanted to set icewm as the WM in my system config - and was surprised
that it's not in guix. Indeed no historical discussion on the topic
indicates low interest in this WM in the Guix community. I prefer it to
XFCE4 though for its simlicity and does most of what I need.
Now, I'd lik

One phrase I heard recently and struck a chord:
Needs Unite, Ideas Divide
We all need Free Software but I think the attitude toward non-free seems to
vary - I seem to be on the side of "I don't care as long as I know where they
are on my system"
So yes, I think we just need to have a separate

I am not a moderator and it is not a guidance.
The Guix project is part of the GNU project; for the good, the
I am seeing the following warning running Guix on a foreign distribution:
$ man man
man: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct
The errors disappear when I manually configure GUIX_LOCPATH, as

One clear way is that AFAIR there's no documented way (yet) to pass
'--removable' to grub-install, so you'll have to manually rename the
grub.efi to bootx64.efi. Annoying but doable.

Thanks,
I made some test on my own to understand :

guix install something installs for the current user. Note that, if you do that
