Hi help-guix, Apologies for the spam, but I'm new here and not sure if IRC or the mailing list is a better channel to use for help. In any case, this will be searchable later.
I'm using cmake's ExternalProject_Add functionality to manage project dependencies, but this is not usable with guix's build containerization system. I get "Could not resolve host: ..." when cmake invokes git to try to clone the repositories. Can network access be provided to the build container? Or, is there perhaps another low-effort workaround in guix? As far as I understand, the only reasonable alternative to add the dependencies as submodules in the main repo? This will still work with the ExternalProject_Add pattern, but it adds an extra point of configuration, and users will need to use a recursive git clone, which is sometimes confusing. Thanks in advance for the clarification, Erik
