Thanks for your quick feedback. Given the time I spent debugging this issue, I agree that this (guix config) module thing is hard to deal with. If it works for you, I could create three new Guile libraries: * Guile-libz * Guile-liblz * Guile-xz or maybe just, * Guile-compression It would help us getting rid of (guix config) as you proposed. WDYT? Thanks, Mathieu
