The problem here is that the transmission package has two outputs: out and gui. These are kind of like subpackages. You need the gui one. And out is the default so transmission means basically transmission:out :) $ guix package --show=transmission name: transmission version: 2.94 outputs: out gui [...] In order to install the UI client of transmission, you only need to use: $ guix package --install=transmission:gui Then transmission should appear in the GNOME menu or at least as transmission-gtk in your terminal. ~Jonathan P.S: I think questions like this fit better on the help-guix@gnu.org mailinglist: https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/contact/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Install ‘transmission:gui’ and you'll be happy. The :gui output also provides a .desktop file that should make things like GNOME add it to their launcher. > Typing "transmission" on terminal also not starting the > application. The command is ‘transmission-gtk’; ‘transmission’ doesn't exist.
