Dear Guixters !
Hope you are well and safe.
On my fresh Guix System, I created a profile using a manifest (mostly
to install Emacs and Qemu).
Then I tried to activate the profile during startup through .profile
file… and nothing happend. My exported variables are not even part of
the environment.
I tried to activate it through the .bashrc then I was able to launch
apps using command line but Gnome doesn't see them.
How should I activate my custom profile ?
$ cat .profile
GUIX_EXTRA_PROFILES=$HOME/.guix-extra-profiles
export GUIX_EXTRA_PROFILES
GUIX_PROFILE="${GUIX_EXTRA_PROFILES}/jeko"
. "$GUIX_PROFILE/etc/profile"
XDG_DATA_DIRS="${XDG_DATA_DIRS}:${GUIX_EXTRA_PROFILES}/jeko/share"
$ guix package --search-paths -p "$HOME/.guix-extra-profiles/jeko"
export PATH="/home/jeko/.guix-extra-profiles/jeko/bin:/home/jeko/.guix-
extra-profiles/jeko/sbin"
export EMACSLOADPATH="/home/jeko/.guix-extra-
profiles/jeko/share/emacs/site-lisp:/home/jeko/.guix-extra-
profiles/jeko/share/emacs/27.1/lisp"
export INFOPATH="/home/jeko/.guix-extra-profiles/jeko/share/info"
export GUILE_LOAD_PATH="/home/jeko/.guix-extra-
profiles/jeko/share/guile/site/3.0"
export GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH="/home/jeko/.guix-extra-
profiles/jeko/lib/guile/3.0/site-ccache:/home/jeko/.guix-extra-
profiles/jeko/share/guile/site/3.0"
export MANPATH="/home/jeko/.guix-extra-profiles/jeko/share/man"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/jeko/.guix-extra-
profiles/jeko/lib/pkgconfig"
$ cat guix-jeko-manifests/jeko-manifest.scm
