Not quite, but it's close! As other replies have mentioned, this
declares a list of channels, but it doesn't actually use it for
anything.
Here's my attempt, using inferiors:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (guix inferior) (guix channels))
(define channels
(list (channel
(name 'guix)
(url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git";)
(branch "master")
(commit
"7f3313341caf844d9fb6919f6cdc28fdcaf06c6d")
(introduction
(make-channel-introduction
"9edb3f66fd807b096b48283debdcddccfea34bad"
(openpgp-fingerprint
"BBB0 2DDF 2CEA F6A8 0D1D E643 A2A0 6DF2 A33A 54FA"))))))
(define inferior
(inferior-for-channels channels))
(packages->manifest
(append (lookup-inferior-packages inferior "make" "4.4.1")
(lookup-inferior-packages inferior "elm" "0.19.1")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
With this, it should be enough to run "guix shell -m manifest.scm" or,
even just "guix shell" if you have an appropriate entry in
~/.config/guix/shell-authorized-directories.
I hope that helps,
Carlo
