"MIT" is ambiguous. The x11 and expat licenses are commonly called "MIT" so you must see which it is. > - Is it safe to do > $ ./pre-inst-env guix environment guix > $ guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm > in GuixSD in a git guix checkout? As a regular user or as root? If as root, how exactly? What are you trying to achieve here? I don't see the reason to enter a build environment for Guix before reconfiguring. In any case, only root can reconfigure. If you want to reconfigure against a local source tree, you need to prefix the command with the path to the relevant 'pre-inst-env' file. > - It is possible to install git guix as normal guix so I don't need pre-inst-env anymore? It's not necessary to install it. You can just symlink ~/.config/guix/latest to your source tree. For example: $ ln -s ~/src/guix ~/.config/guix/latest That will be undone if you run `guix pull`. > For every user? Yes, just apply the symlink for each user. But think about the implications of doing it for root if the Guix source tree is owned by your unprivileged user. You will be giving any software that runs as your user a potential root privilege escalation. I'll let somebody else review the patch, since I'm not familiar with fluxbox. > > Then a new file "gnu/packages/fluxbox.scm": > ;;; GNU Guix --- Functional package management for GNU > ;;; Copyright © 2014 Julien Lepiller > ;;; Copyright © 2016 Efraim Flashner > ;;; > ;;; This file is part of GNU Guix. > ;;; > ;;; GNU Guix is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it > ;;; under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by > ;;; the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or (at > ;;; your option) any later version. > ;;; > ;;; GNU Guix is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but > ;;; WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of > ;;; MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
