Ah! Sounds reasonable! Thanks a lot. - John

Re: [bug#38593] Remove invalid library directories from some haskell packages

Hi Ludo and guix, Let me explain my problem. Maybe there is some other explanation here and these patches aren’t necessary. When I have stylish-haskell installed I have troubles compiling anything using plain ghc. I want to use the ghc packages in the profile but for some reason ghc reports

Re: Help with Packaging and Git

I agree with Leo. My only addition is to make sure you use --localstatedir=/var (or wherever your local state directory is) when running ./configure

Re: Guix as a package manager for Emacs

Hi everyone, Has anyone used the portable dumper yet? Could it be used to make a custom emacs package with the specified emacs packages dumped to a separate dump file? Just some thoughts I’ve had and tried recently but I don’t really know where the dumper is at these days. John

Cuirass - check evaluation # from build details

Hi Guix, I’m curious about the commit that made a package fail to build. So I: - Searched the package - Followed the build id of the first broken build Now I’d like to see the evaluation and commit associated to the particular build. How do I do that, if at all? It would also help if I could f

Re: a first question about parallel environments

Hi again, Seems my message was cut off. To the point: yes it is quite possible. For the short version and to get started check out the docs for the `guix environment` command. You will probably get what you want there. Also it does help to understand the idea of a functional package manager.

Re: how to run docker?

Hi Adam, You will also need the dockerd service in you system configuration, plus there is a known bug where a known module is not loaded by default. Should dockerd not start properly you will need to do the following: sudo modprobe overlay sudo herd restart dockerd Good luck, John
