how can I put the Emacs manifest from a profile to the main profile

how can I put the Emacs manifest from a profile to the main profile

[gfp]

[-- Attachment #1.1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 376 bytes --]

Hi Guix,

I created a manifest for Emacs and put it in a separate profile.

How can I now transfer this manifest to my main profile?

Some other manifests which I put in a separate profile consisted only of 
one sentence which mentioned the package.

But Emacs is different. I put many specifications there.
That´s why my question.

thanks for help

Gottfried

I’m using a different profile for emacs myself.

Not sure to follow, could you  share the manifest ?

If you still have a copy of both manifests, the one that declares Emacs 
things only and the one that declares what goes into your default user 
profile, then you simply tell guix to use both manifests to create a new 
generation of your main profile:

     guix package -m path/to/manifest-emacs.scm -m path/to/manifest-main.scm

If you lost any of your manifest files, you can export them from their 
corresponding profiles. For example,

❶ Ask guix to list the profiles it knows about (maybe your 
Emacs-specific profile will be listed):

     guix package --list-profiles

❷ Export a manifest from a given profile (your Emacs profile, for example):

     guix package --export-manifest 
--profile=/path/to/gottfried-emacs-profile > manifest-emacs.scm

I hope that helps,

Ok, so you try to combine two manifests, right ?

See Luis Felipe reply to your original email.

Hi Luis,

thanks for your help.

I have got:
gfp@Tuxedo ~$ guix package --list-profiles
/home/gfp/Projekte/Emacs/guix-profil
/home/gfp/Projekte/Musik/guix-profil
/home/gfp/.config/guix/current
/home/gfp/.guix-profile

I would have to write:

guix package -m /home/gfp/Projekte/Emacs/emacs.scm -m 
/home/gfp/.guix-profile/manifest

Is that all right?

thanks

Gottfried

Almost right. The second manifest (/home/gfp/.guix-profile/manifest) is 
not the kind of manifest you can pass to the --manifest option. So, 
instead, get a manifest from your current main profile by exporting it 
as follows:

     guix package --export-manifest > manifest-main.scm

At this point, you can run:

     guix package -m /home/gfp/Projekte/Emacs/emacs.scm -m manifest-main.scm

Finally, you can save your manifests wherever you want and edit them as 
you want for future upgrades of your profile(s).

For more information about why /home/gfp/.guix-profile/manifest can't be 
passed as a manifest, you can read the comments in that file. For example:

     emacs .guix-profile/manifest

Please let us know if things worked well.

1.
I did that and interestingly it worked.

In the terminal it said:
followings packages are being installed.
It installed every single package of Emacs (including Emacs 29.4) in my 
main profile, which I had in the Emacs manifest.
So I have now 180 packages.

2.
I thought it will be like the manifest of Emacs which I had in a 
separate profile, but now every emacs package got separately installed.

3.

So, where is now my emacs manifest?

4.
At least I can open Emacs in my application list.

5.
Can I now delete my Emacs manifest in my separate profile?

thanks

Gottfried
