I asked Guix and it said no, that's madness, sorry. I think I
agree.
Letting packages like Julien's excellent guix-home-manager[0]
extend guix is interesting (once it works[1] :-).
It feels natural enough and allows anyone on a ‘guix foo is
broken’ support call to ‘guix install guix-foo && guix foo’ with
little trouble.
Guix executing arbitrary scripts in ~/.config does neither.
I'm unconvinced there's a use case that justifies reinventing
shell aliases in Guix, in a heavy-weight fashion, while
simultaneously not being ‘worth’ a real Guixtension package.
Kind regards,
T G-R
