I also think having the full paths in the manifests will lead to fewer cross-version/cross-package mixing of objects, compared to setting and using environment variables of directories to search. > > * https://issues.guix.gnu.org/62313 might need a modification to mesa e.g. > > to add VDPAU_DRIVER_PATH as a native-search-path (one possible solution; in > > my home profile I made VDPAU work by setting > > "VDPAU_DRIVER_PATH=/run/current-system/profile/lib/vdpau"). > > * https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48868 appears to be the same > > VDPAU_DRIVER_PATH issue as https://issues.guix.gnu.org/62313. For the VDPAU drivers, I plan to do a little more digging and some experimenting but I suspect defining VDPAU_DRIVER_PATH as a native-search-path is the best way forward. I'll send a patch once I've tested a change locally without having my profile set VDPAU_DRIVER_PATH to /run/current-system/profile/lib/vdpau.
