To use the =E2=80=98tor=E2=80=99 command, like any other package, you must = install=20 the =E2=80=98tor=E2=80=99 package into either the system profile (using=20 SYSTEM-PACKAGES) or that of your user (using =E2=80=98guix package=E2=80=99= ). I'd recommend SYSTEM-PACKAGES in this case so the tor commands=20 will always match the version of Tor used by the service. This is by design; services can't pollute the environment of=20 users, including the system profile. That's a good thing. > Therefore, "tor-service-type" is of little or no use, if it does=20 > not > invoke and add "tor" package into the system. That's just not true. The tor service does its job and works just=20 fine without the =E2=80=98tor=E2=80=99 command. I just checked both of my = Tor=20 nodes (both run Guix :-) and neither of them have =E2=80=98tor=E2=80=99 ins= talled=20 into any profile. Nyx and herd (and emacs torrc) are all I need=20 to administrate them. I'm closing this because there's no bug here=E2=80=A6 Kind regards, T G-R --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEARYKAB0WIQT12iAyS4c9C3o4dnINsP+IT1VteQUCXMCwvgAKCRANsP+IT1Vt efVuAP4vMdOisnQLqPZniNpfTyHlwA9bTSgUd61oe1q9uQoU0AD/YIqUsHIh1zdI tn6p7BwWvXmV4x9cHH4fEhWadMPktwU= =4gHa -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
