Hello,
thanks to pjotr's great notes about containers [1], I now know how to
run a X-application in a guix container :-) Thanks pjotr!
I tried this with xcalc and got a "incomplete" window, see screenshot
(yes, is this tiny thing is the complete window).
Now I'm wondering what the reason for this is. It looks like xcalc is
missing some dependencies?
Addendum: I found out that xcalc is behaving the same when running in a
normal environment. Also please note that I'm running guix on top of
some host OS.
To reproduce:
./pre-inst-env guix environment --ad-hoc xcalc -- xcalc

Hallo,
since xcalc does not work well when running in a container (and in a
stand-alone environment), I tried icecat, since this is what pjotr's
great notes about containers [1] are using as an example.
Now, the result is: icecat does not run in a container, too (it does run
in an environment, though)
I assume icecat or gtk is missing some inputs, which even may need to be
propagated. Any hints?
./pre-inst-env guix environment --container --network
--share=/tmp/.X11-unix --fallback --ad-hoc icecat
export DISPLAY=:0.0
icecat

ExceptionHandler::GenerateDump cloned child 46

I tried adding shared-mime-info with no result.
