What does guix repositories mean? Substitutes? Those will always go through tor when you configure that. They are https. What might not go through tor are other things. For example downloading sources of packages that you do not get from substitutes, but from FTP or SSH (though there are none from SSH in Guix channel as far as I can tell.) Guix is source-based, there are no 'repositories' like in other package managers that do have it easy when routing through Tor, because they download everything via one defined protocol from one defined location. The only way would be that someone manages the sources in Tor and guix would add a possibility to always download from there rather than the specified url. Something like software heritage fallback, but forced instead of being a fallback. > > https://trisquel.info/en/forum/tor-and-i2p-mirror#comment-177557 > He has provided a forced tor option for trisquel's repositories.
