Subject: #!/usr/bin/env in containers, or something
Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2016 14:16:31 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <878tth1pio.fsf@dustycloud.org> (raw)
I'm currently looking at building a version of coreboot. Unfortunately,
the mortal enemy of every GuixSD user, #!/usr/bin/env, lurks around
every corner.
Wingo made an interesting suggestion on IRC today: maybe we could have
some "guix environment --container" CLI mapping /usr/bin/env.
I know we want "purity" and it's annoying that /usr/bin/env even exists,
but there are times where you're trying to do some development on some
upstream package, and it's not possible if you can't get /usr/bin/env
into your development environment. Sinc we can make containers --pure,
I think it would be okay to have /usr/bin/env in this circumstance.
What do people think?
