Subject: Re: How to replace a system package with a patched version in system configuration?

I use a heavily customised keyboard layout
(https://github.com/moesasji/xkeyboard-config/commit/23fdb4a6966fd65b98b1fd303cfaecf8fcae8556);
as I result I need to add my customized layout to the system before I
can use the existing keyboard configuration mechanism in guix for the
system as a whole.

The reason I want to patch xkeyboard-config is that is what is used in
keyboard.scm to define the various keyboard formats used by Guix
