In other words, can we strip away almost all of the packages and still have a minimal bootable system? If we minimize that set of really-core packages, maybe there can be one team that works on this minimal bootable OS and produce stable images that are fast to update. If people want to add more packages, there is always the current "fat" rolling Guix git repository that you can add on top of the small base OS. Just an idea that I've come back to while watching the Guix git repository grow over the years. /Simon --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEARYIADIWIQSjzJyHC50xCrrUzy9RcisI/kdFogUCZ1xbGBQcc2ltb25Aam9z ZWZzc29uLm9yZwAKCRBRcisI/kdFogXvAP9pz2vqybJ1HPEmI71uVGxRMV2yt2VV goCrTA9evbErZAEAsiD6jIORbA6uRIK1+nAVmavey4VxNNipTVkMfPMLew4= =CBK/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
