I have installed cl-asdf using `guix install cl-asdf`. The installation
was successful. However, when I looked into the
~/.guix-profile/share/common-lisp/source/asdf/ directory, I only see one
file: asdf.lisp.
Is this normal? I was expecting to get an `asdf.asd` file as well. I am

I am new to Guix, so I'm not sure what's considered "normal" here.
Guix is the only package manager I know that does not include an .asd
file for ASDF. Nix's asdf includes an asd file. Debian and Ubuntu's
cl-asdf includes an asd file. F

So does this mean that there is a bug in Guix, or at least something
worthy of a feature request?
I am following this article to manage my Digital Ocean servers using
'guix deploy':
https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2019/managing-servers-with-gnu-guix-a-tutorial/
However, I notice that the Digital Ocean deployment actually installs
Guix version 1.0.1 (May 2019) instead of the latest version — 1.2.0

It looks like there is something named "guix-infect":

Perhaps the blog article about 'guix deploy' would help you:

Does this mean that it is possible to participate (i.e. start new

If so, that would be gr
I found an existing bug report about this problem:

I installed GNU Guix 1.3.0 binary using the tarball downloaded from

What is GNU Guix's policy on package requests?
I am able to package simple software (e.g. software with minimal
dependencies that use the gnu-build-system), but some complicated
software are too difficult for me. I know that something is too

I have my own channel in a Git repository on my local computer.
This is what I do to search and install packages from my own channel:

$ GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=. guix install 'mypackage'
However, if there is a package with the same

I guess I misread the documentation or was misled by it.

Warnings will also be printed. For example:

I noticed that many C and C++ libraries in Guix are built with the
--disable-static option. Why are static libraries excluded from Guix?
