Hi Guix,
I'm trying to go about updating a package and submitting a patch.
A good learning process for me.
I managed to update the package, emacs-exwm and to build it successfully
via:
./pre-inst-env guix build emacs-exwm
Few Qs:
Should I do this after updating a package? make check to check all tests
pass? Or rather the CI does that?
Secondly, how do I go about testing this package on my system (laptop
running guix) to see if the updated package actually works?
I've done this in channels.scm
(list
(channel
(name 'guix)
(url "https://gitlab.com/divansantana/guix/";)
(branch "master")))
And then updated to my fork, though not sure if that is the best way.
I suppose it may be better to test these things in a vm via guix vm.
Thanks!
