Hi Guixers,

I got into trouble.

After inserting:
(guix-service-type config => (guix-configuration (inherit config) 
(extra-options (list "--gc-keep-derivations=yes" 
"--gc-keep-outputs=yes")))))
in my config.scm

I can't do a:
sudo guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

It said "invalid field specifier.

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ sudo guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm
Passwort:
/etc/config.scm:25:2: Fehler: (services (append (list (service 
mate-desktop-service-type) (service enlightenment-desktop-service-type) 
(service cups-service-type (cups-configuration (web-interface? #t) 
(extensions (list cups-filters hplip)))) (service openssh-service-type) 
(service tor-service-type) (set-xorg-configuration (xorg-configuration 
(keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)))) (modify-services %desktop-services 
(sane-service-type _ => sane-backends))) (guix-service-type config => 
(guix-configuration (inherit config) (extra-options (list 
"--gc-keep-derivations=yes" "--gc-keep-outputs=yes"))))): invalid field 
specifier


than I deleted one of two empty lines (before  (bootloader.......)

Then I did again a:

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ sudo guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm
Passwort:
guix system: Fehler: =>: bad use of '=>' syntactic keyword

It said: bad use of systactic keyword




Could anybody help to check my config.scm?

I believe the correct usage would be

  (service guix-service-type ...)

Move (guix-service-type ... to inside of (modify-services ...

Hi Guixers,

thanks for the answer.

I changed my config.scm to:

(service guix-service-type
                config => (guix-configuration
                  (inherit config)
                  (extra-options (list "--gc-keep-derivations=yes" 
"--gc-keep-outputs=yes"))))

and after:
gfp@Tuxedo ~$ sudo guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

it said:

/etc/config.scm:38:12: Fehler: (service guix-service-type config => 
(guix-configuration (inherit config) (extra-options (list 
"--gc-keep-derivations=yes" "--gc-keep-outputs=yes")))): source 
expression failed to match any pattern
