Hi Lars,

Woow, nice!

Can we instead patch the thing that creates ‘petscvariables’ in the
first place?

The reason I’m suggesting it is because in general we avoid hardcoding
/gnu/store in substitution patterns because it’s possible to configure
Guix with a different store directory.

Thanks, and apologies for the delay!

Ludo’.
