Some docstrings state that directly (despite the rather unituitive channel-build-system != guix-channel-build-system). But I basically discovered that through error digging. For instance in the manual : The resulting package is a Guix instance of the given channel(s), similar to how @command{guix time-machine} would build it. For RDE, I'm trying to get that built with a guile-build-system which is quite close to what I wanted actually. I'm at peace without an extension of the build-system, but we should probably at least make it more visible in the manual and doctrings that this is only for a Guix channel and cannot be user to build any channel you found online. -- Best regards, Nicolas Graves
