Subject: Guix home on foreign distribution
Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2021 15:41:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <QZ4jZ355PcUw39jIeoUnckKL5ewx6wSAJ9llVyDIxLWQ2K1zoANAmtqhKJUS-x3JrEQn1ICUIo_Dl39YfoEWDDJAHhGk_Bh1JCkS35Mbg14=@protonmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

Is there anything related to file and directory permissions to be set on foreign distrubution for guix home to work?

I know that feature is still pretty young and some parts are still in dev, yet I have tried it on my fedora 34 system and got the following error, which could be related to permission and file ownership:

The guix home configuration file I use:

---------------------------------------------

(use-modules (gnu home)
(gnu home services)
(gnu home services shells)
(gnu services)
(gnu packages admin)
(gnu packages python-xyz)
(gnu packages password-utils)
(gnu packages dunst)
(gnu packages disk)
(gnu packages backup)
(gnu packages libreoffice)
(gnu packages guile)
(gnu packages xdisorg)
(gnu packages tls)
(gnu packages vpn)
(guix gexp))

(home-environment
(packages (list htop glances password-store dunst ranger restic hunspell
;; hunspell-dict-fr hunspell-dict-en
;; guile
neofetch xdotool openssl openvpn xscreensaver))
(services
(list
(service home-bash-service-type
(home-bash-configuration
(guix-defaults? #t)
(bash-profile (list "export HISTFILE=$HOME/.bash_history"))))

(simple-service 'test-config
home-files-service-type
(list `("config/test.conf"
,(plain-file "tmp-file.txt"
"the content of ~/.config/test.conf")))))))
-------------------------------------

Some system related information:
-------------------------------------------------------
[roland@singularity ~]$ guix describe
hint: Consider installing the `glibc-locales' package and defining `GUIX_LOCPATH', along these lines:

guix install glibc-locales
export GUIX_LOCPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale"

See the "Application Setup" section in the manual, for more info.
