What feature regarding containers would you like to know more about?

Thanks for your reply. I use containers (via LXC) as lightweight Virtual Machines
as such I can emulate my use of LXC with guix already using a VM.

The difference I see between guix containers and LXC is that in LXC the container
has its own network device and an IP. What I usually do with LXC:

a) start the lxc container
b) ssh into it and

proceed as if I was in a Xen Virtuam Machine.


Have nice day!

“guix environment”, for example, supports isolation through container
