This is a meta/tracker bug to track what needs to be done and what is already done, to run Guix system on the Purism Librem 5 phone. https://puri.sm/products/librem-5/
The Librem 5 will be shipped with a mobile optimized GNOME based on PureOS which is based on Debian, but contains only free software :) As the phone and the software is still in heavy development, we don't know yet what exactly is required to have a proper "phone" experience. Hardware spec: SoC: NXP iMX8M Quad Core arch: aarch64 storage: 32GB eMMC For more details see: https://shop.puri.sm/shop/librem-5/ GNOME and it's packages should be on the newest versions, as they could contain fixes and improvements for a mobile UI (responsive). The following packages are still missing in Guix or may need adjustments. Kernel/boot: - kernel: At the moment there are surely patches on top of linux-vanilla required, but Purism pushes hard to upstream those. So maybe no special is required when the phones ship. - u-boot-imx: U-Boot for iMX, they have still patches on top of https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/uboot-imx Core libraries: - libhandy: provides responsive UI stuff for GTK, may becoming dependency of some GNOME packages https://source.puri.sm/Librem5 /libhandy - phosh: Wayland shell (prototype) for GNOME on mobile devices: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh Leaf packages: - calls: App for calling, backend ModemManager or oFono https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/calls - chatty: App for SMS and XMPP messaging: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/chatty - epiphany/GNOME Web: They have some patches for mobile UI: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/epiphany - gnome-contacts: Missing in Guix, they have a phone-focused fork: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/gnome-contacts Feel free to add comments, other bugs which are related or relevant links etc.
