Subject: skeleton files in sub-directories
Date: Sun, 26 May 2019 14:38:03 +0430	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c7f3514d-2e23-4066-8050-180d53aecaa6@www.fastmail.com> (raw)

Hi Guix, 

I want to add a series of configuration files to each user's home directory. for this 
I could use skeletons in operating system definitions. 

the problem is that some of these skeletons are located in sub-directories, for 
example `~/.local/share/foo/bar.cfg`. and when I run `guix system reconfigure`
I receive errors about missing parent directory (`~/.local/share/foo` in this example).

is there any way to create parent directories before copying the skeleton files? 


Thanks,
Reza
