In practice, =E2=80=98nice to have later=E2=80=99 becomes virtually never, = see e.g. not building dependencies again and again and not having to build dozens of variants of a package (go-build-system (*) and cargo-build-system (**). As such, I'd rather have =E2=80=98now=E2=80=99. Also, this sounds like adding a new feature (multiple profiles for Guix Home) at cost of an extra (known) bug (these multiple profiles don't share search paths). (*) used to be reasonable 4 years ago, marked as =E2=80=98not a blocker=E2= =80=99 and then neglected, see )=20 (**) Currently being addressed with antioxidant-build-system (WIP) Greetings, Maxime. --=-l5uHtbwZt0P6pI/AyXFQ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iI0EABYKADUWIQTB8z7iDFKP233XAR9J4+4iGRcl7gUCYnGagBccbWF4aW1lZGV2 b3NAdGVsZW5ldC5iZQAKCRBJ4+4iGRcl7l70AQCVRPiWZdcmcl+M4LoCAOeLW6kb ZNXTWpKapVva+LkhlQD/UhjV7ukIZcca+NVJiMR6+ah0yVR1gR4a92Qp3oyjYwU= =krb9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-l5uHtbwZt0P6pI/AyXFQ--
