Hi,

I've read https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Packaging-Guidelines.html and I am done with the gnunet-gtk.scm, at least as far as I can go without testing.
My question is, do I check out the guix.git for testing the package with
./pre-inst-env guix build $pkg-name --keep-failed
or what is the general recommended process for this?
I know I can even setup VMs within guix with guix, but I just started and need some pointers.
