I tried this one! 😁 The `string-append` version I mean. `mcron` can then find `notmuch`, but `notmuch` has some hooks that depend on other commands; `mbsync` and `afew` in my case. For this, I cannot really provide the full path? 🤔 … actually, I could, but then it would be `/home/USER/.guix-home/profile/bin/mbsync`, not the actual path. This should work, but I can help be find it a bit weird, because it propagates to quite a number of files. 😞 And the same goes for `vdirsyncer` that relies on `pass`… Oh, actually, I've just figured out that this doesn't actually work, because my `USER` is not the same on all my computers! 😱 And I cannot rely on `$HOME` because it's not supported by all the configuration files that are affected. So I would definitively favour a solution where the PATH is set once and for all by Mcron. Regards, -- Tanguy
