Subject: Guix/GNU/Linux multi distro + GuixSD multi-site scenario
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2016 12:32:01 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <86r3eyzfge.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
These are questions about a Guix user scenario I am contemplating.
Situation:
- I have installed Guix/Debian and GuixSD on a couple home servers
(behind a typical broadband router).
- I am running Guix from a git checkout to which I have applied personal
patches.
- TODO I talk my friendly sysadmins at a couple organizations into
installing Guix on /GNU/Linux distros, say ubuntu and centos.
It seems obvious that Guix supports this scenario. But it is not so
obvious what the best way to 'instantiate' it is ;)
So I have a few questions:
1) What is a practical way to get the same identical versions of my
customized guix packages running on all the machines?
2) What is a good setup that allows me to make and coordinate changes in
my package manifest, package recipes, and Guix version anywhere?
3) I may want to source substitutes from my home servers. Any words of
wisdom?
You can assume that I know how to tunnel between the sites, use git,
manage remote git repos, and have a reasonable user-level knowledge of
Guix and GuixSD.
TIA - George
