This wouldn’t always be feasible, because it would require *manual*
reference tracking. The packager would need to know what references
need to be retained and then ensure that they ar
Do we know the impact of disabling compression?
I don't think it is really a big problem.
You are right with this, I'm still a bit stuck in another mindset, where we
usually know, that we have only one version of a package...

Hi Gábor,
The manifest file would not be sufficient. Take the example of
“java-usb4java”. It provides a file “share/java/usb4java.jar”, which
contains this manifest:

Hmm, any news on this? I've again got some immortal files in /tmp ...

I will test that. I’m not sure if the manifest is really sufficient.

udev expects the device names of some special devices to already exist
when udev is started.
So ask kmod which they are and create them.

The "guix system search" command doesn't show how we are supposed to
start/stop the searched service.
For example, I think it would be useful to know that "herd stop
xmpp-daemon" stops the XMPP server and "herd stop xorg-server" stops the
Xorg server.
Neither "guix system search xorg" nor "guix s
