Greetings Geeks,

After watching the DaveT and ChrisW video on youtube, I was genuinely
impressed with the goals and design of the project and I wanted to take it
for a spin. Pleasantly surprised at how easy the install was. within an
hour I had a GNOME desktop running and was poking around the packages
available. I have a few issues that I need help with:

Fresh install of guix sd .11 and git pull today. GNOME 3.20 runs well with
no crashes. Susend/Resume works, NW is stable

In GNOME control center, I cannot change the date/time or the TZ and it
defaults to London GMT. It complains of missing policykit files but i can't
find the correct package. i have polkit packages installed

Is it not possible to get the full vanilla GNOME 3.20 env on Guix SD due to
no systemd? - I am genuinely curious and not flamebaiting

Is there a top level metapackage that i can install so that the full GNOME
3.20 env with all the tools and utils can be pulled in
