Subject: Remove Package from Gnome Meta-Package
Date: Sat, 01 Jun 2024 21:48:12 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8734pw2xv7.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi All,
Is there an analogue in Guix for NixOS's `excludePackage`? Under NixOS I
had something like the following in my system config:
> environment.gnome.excludePackages = with pkgs.gnome; [
> cheese
> epiphany
> gnome-music
> ];
Which allowed me to use a mostly OOTB Gnome install minus some packages
I really don't care about. I've seen some old 2018–2019 posts describing
ways in Guix to make a custom Gnome package minus the bits I don't want,
but I've had no luck so far with this.
I was really hoping there'd be a canonical, obvious and modern way of
achieving this, and if there is in the manual I've had no luck finding
it. Obviously this isn't a deal-breaker for me using Guix, but I think
it would be neat to have.
Any assistance appreciated.
