The long hexadecimal block isn't parsed as a number: ``` (with-input-from-file "/etc/guix/signing-key.pub" read) ... /etc/guix/signing-key.pub:4:8: Unknown # object: #\C ``` Trying to store it as a module results in the same error. So I can't just have an associative list of hostnames and signing keys and filter it based on the hostname, I have to store each key as an opaque file, completely bypassing the module system.
