I am not sure if I am allowed to point to my git server here. The single repository includes no code that is against the Guidelines Guix follows, but there are repositories on it which don't and which (currently) are still usable with Guix. In any case I've decided to move the core packages for now back into another repository. If I encounter this problem again, I'll provide more details. > I’d also like to suggest asking questions on guile-user when you have > questions about Guile.

In my example (pkgs lang-perl perl) itself had the parent directory "pkgs". I admit, code examples would've made it more clear.. Since we can point to github.com regularly, I think my private server would not be considered problematic? > -- > Ricardo
