‘guix copy’

Hello Guix! :-) I’m pleased to announce the last(?) feature of the year: ‘guix copy’! It copies store items over SSH, pretty much like ‘guix offload’ already does; documentation below. Currently there’s no progress report and error reporting is suboptimal, but I find it useful already. Feedback

Hello everyone, I have been giving GuixSD some thought as the holiday's pass and I had a question I wanted to ask. During a recent scare with a computer on my LAN being compromised (a Windows system), I've been giving thought to some issues with securing desktops, and one of those is file int

[PATCH] gnu: tar: Fix CVE-2016-6321.

Hi Guix, This patch fixes CVE-2016-6321 for GNU Tar. The patch is basically directly copied from upstream with the modification to the NEWS file removed since it hunks out to a reject file. The message below is for your reference. From 934e7d752bdd04521c8d0bc2c6cde4a66bf074b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00
