LXQt has recently been added to guix's master branch. Please run `guix pull` to update your guix. And there is no need to copy lxqt.scm from elsewhere. Please note that LXQt in guix is still immature. lxqt-runner is buggy, and lxqt-panel simply does not work. If you want to help with the development, have a look at this previous thread: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-10/msg00380.html -- Meiyo Peng From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Meiyo Peng Subject: Re: guix development Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2018 23:56:09 +0800 Message-ID: <87muqv2zty.fsf@gmail.com> References: <1541291538.19293555.1540848048553.ref@mail.yahoo.com> <1541291538.19293555.1540848048553@mail.yahoo.com> <87y3aggggj.fsf@gmail.com> <840752987.19727522.1540911166075@mail.yahoo.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Return-path: Received: from eggs.gnu.org ([2001:4830:134:3::10]:42546) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1gHWNM-0005HR-PG for guix-devel@gnu.org; Tue, 30 Oct 2018 11:56:17 -0400 Received: from Debian-exim by eggs.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1gHWNJ-0002no-Ac for guix-devel@gnu.org; Tue, 30 Oct 2018 11:56:16 -0400 Received: from mail-pl1-x635.google.com ([2607:f8b0:4864:20::635]:38215) by eggs.gnu.org with esmtps (TLS1.0:RSA_AES_128_CBC_SHA1:16) (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1gHWNJ-0002jg-3h for guix-devel@gnu.org; Tue, 30 Oct 2018 11:56:13 -0400 Received: by mail-pl1-x635.google.com with SMTP id p7-v6so5762221plk.5 for ; Tue, 30 Oct 2018 08:56:13 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <840752987.19727522.1540911166075@mail.yahoo.com> (Ali Nourmohammadi's message of "Tue, 30 Oct 2018 14:52:46 +0000 (UTC)") List-Id: "Development of GNU Guix and the GNU System distribution."

You simply install lxqt as any other package. - Run `guix pull` to update guix. - Add lxqt to your config.scm. - Run `guix system reconfigure config.scm`. I suggest you to read the guix manual first if you have any question.

There is no need to define lxqt as a shepherd service. lxqt should be started by a display manager, like SLiM or SDDM. If you include %desktop-services in your config.scm, then you have slim installed by default. Simply install lxqt and shoose lxqt from your login screen to start lxqt. Again.
