It's not, IMO, because while it'= s very easy to set up a channel, it's very difficult to publish substitutes= for it=2E

I don't think collisions are any more likely, but perhaps= you know of cases I haven't encountered=2E

The larger risk is diver= gence of package definitions, so version X of a package in Bob's channel wo= rks very differently than version X+1 in Alice's=2E

I'd greatly pref= er to do the maintenance in Guix, as it'd be much simpler for everyone=2E

I wonder how scalable this approac=
h is, if many "package maintainers"
each have their own channel for the =
packages they are maintaining, and
made available this way=2E   I would =
guess to use this approach the Guix
users have to do "guix package -u --=
allow-collision"

re <ian@retrospec=2Etv>
Whatever the state of Guix proper, you can=
 always find the current
version of LibreWolf in my personal channel[1],=
 though I don=E2=80=99t
have a public substitute server, so long build t=
imes will await
you if you choose this route=2E
