Yes, it was python2-dbus that was needed. I thought they had ported to python3.
Guess not.

I'm trying to install Plover from source, however tox throws an error about
dbus. It's looking for "dbus-1". Is that some thing guix provides?
Here's what I have installed for dbus:
ahab@pequod ~/Projects/plover$guix package -A | grep dbus

No, the 'guix-store-item' command runs 'guix gc' under the hood, so it's safe.
Removing manually here refers to using rm.

I'm trying to update stenography.scm to use a later version of plover. I made
a few changes (given below), some appropriate, others not, and ran guix build
-K --file=xc.stenography.scm. It built and runs directly from the store.
Great. I want to fix the inappropriate changes and create a pro

Cool, glad I asked. Looks like one of the two people doing videos about Guix.

I'm setting up the Emacs daemon following a thread on the mailing list:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2019-11/msg00148.html. I have
services.scm and init.scm defined. I can call `shepherd -c
~/.config/shepherd/init.scm` and the service starts. I can kill the terminal
and
It works now!
In all fairness, it didn't work immediately. Because life is so busy, I had to
shut down and on restart (however long after my last message) ran guix pull
followed by guix package -u. Running make then compiled without issue. I see
that sweet, sweet main window!
Thank you so much

It doesn't appear so. I had installed the glibc package previously (although I
assumed it was part of the GCC deps). Trying to install the headers complained
about conflicts with the glibc package. Uninstalled glibc and installed

You're correct. I'm not precisely seeing in 'messages' what I see during boot.

I'm trying to investigate a slow Guix System boot, yet am unsure how to view
the logs. My understanding is that Shepherd handles the boot process. I can't
find information in the manual about where logs are stored or how to view them.
How can I view boot logs?
I use sticky modifier keys to help with hand/typing issues. This means that
ctrl, alt, shift etc remain depressed after release similar to how caps lock
"sticks" shift on. This is usually done with xkbset.
I don't see xkbset in guix packages. Am I overlooking it or is there another

I can't figure out how to play the videos on the Guix homepage using a browser
from within Guix.
I have installed GuixSD in a VM with the XFCE desktop. I have installed
Epiphany, along with gstreamer andd ffmpeg. When I navigate to
