I had wondered if there's some sort of FrankenDebian way but did not pursue it. Given this line in the script: mv var/guix /var/ && mv gnu / there seems to be a complete takeover, even better than a FrankenDebian :-) > It's on my to do list to create a solid guix deploy server creation > module for guix. That would certainly be appreciated. I'm currently in the process of cementing Guix usage here (for databases at least). If I succeed and get some time, I might be able to do a first stab. Though it would be more useful for applications, which come and go more often than databases. We currently manage apps with ansible, I already have started lobbying at low rate. But first things first -- databases! Best regards
