Hello,
I am currently trying to install Guix System on my laptop and I am facing an
issue with the bootloader configuration.
I use full-disk encryption with a single encrypted partition, split into
several logical volumes using LVM, plus an extra non-encrypted partition for
EFI boot material:
Hi Roman,
Thanks for the suggestions.

Hello again,
Continuing on my adventures with installing Guix System on LVM on LUKS with
Grub as bootloader, I would like to suggest a few adujstments to how Grub is
installed in Guix:
- Install the keymaps in the EFI partition like the Grub modules, so that the
proper keymap is setup early in

Hello Guix,
I would like to share a few thoughts on how TeXlive is currently handled in
Guix. The package `texlive` contains all of TeXlive, it works fine but it is
arguably too big to be practical. The documentation rightfully says

Hello Guix,
There has been a lot of movement around TeX Live recently and it is very nice
to see. We now have a usable modular installation and a great number of
available packages and collections. However, I don't understand what is the
proper way to reach documentation in the current system.

I think it would make much more sense to have "doc" outputs also for
collections and schemes. It would be consistent with the structure of
individual packages and would not require artificial packages.
Having individual package documentations in one's manifests is of course
doable but it is contradictory with the approach of collections.

Hello Guix,
Is there a way to share Guix and its store between several distributions?
My situation is that I have a Guix system installed as my main system, but I
would like to install another distribution on the same machine (a current
Debian, specifically) and use Guix as a package manager ther

Hello Guix,
I am having performance issues with Guix operations since a few weeks.
Concretely, any call to `guix pull` takes approximately 10 minutes to finish,
on a reasonably powerful machine (Core i7, 12 cores, 16G RAM, 1 TB SSD drive
with plenty of available space), and this even if rerun `gui

I faced the same issue some time ago, not sure when. Indeed the issue was with
swaylock complaining about setuid. My system
