Hi Guixers/Lispers, What is the recommended way to load common lisp libraries that I install with GNU/Guix on a foreign distro from a repl? What are the common practices/workflows that the Guix community currently uses with emacs-slime or sly to load common lisp libraries? Is there a way of load

Hello, I have an X1 Carbon (2021) that requires sof-firmware. It is libre software, and I believe is included in the linux-libre kernel since 5.2. Is there a way to get this firmware working on this laptop with GNU GUIX? https://www.sofproject.org/ https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_ite

postgresql client packaging recipe

Hi, Postgresql-client is not available in the main repository (server is!). I assumed it was due to the complicated license: https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/p/postgresql-13/postgresql-13_13.4-0+deb11u1_copyright So I wrote a packaging recipe (below) and submitted to nonfree

Mortimer, So I wrote a packaging recipe (below) and submitted to nonfree. Was told it might be that no one has gotten around to packaging for main yet. Just FYI, Guix doesn't have sections like Debian. There is only a single guix git repository, containing all packages supported and mainta
