   Regards,

   I currently use xonsh as my user's shell, but the default version in
   GuixSD is 0.6.2 and the latest available is 0.9.18.

   I wrote a file to install the latest version of this package but I
   cannot set this version as my user's default shell.

   There is a way to update xonsh in the config.scm file to the latest
   available version.

   Thank you

Hey Edison,

One easy way to do this is to just put your package definition in 
config.scm, above your operating system definition. I haven't 
tried it with a shell, but the basic idea would be to have 
something like this:

(define-public xonsh
  ... your package definition ...)

(operating-system
  ... other bits ...
  (users (cons (user-account
                ... other bits ...
                (shell (file-append xonsh "/bin/xonsh")))
               %base-user-accounts))
  ... other bits ...)

Another way to do it would be to submit a patch updating xonsh to 
be included in Guix, which would also benefit all other Guix 
users.

Hi, they here :-)

I do a quick mail search before updating most packages.  It looks 
like yours arrived just too late.  Feel free to compare my bump[0] 
against yours & let me know if there are any interesting 
differences between them!

Kind regards,

T G-R

Thanks Tobias,

The only part that I would change is in the "inputs" to add 
python-prompt-toolkit since it will add more complete 
functionality  when presenting predictions or suggestions 
something similar to what fish shell and zsh do.

(inputs
     `(("python-ply" ,python-ply)
       ("python-prompt-toolkit@2.0.7" ,python-prompt-toolkit)))

regards

I think the standard advice is to submit a patch to update the version
of xonsh, then use profiles to run the version desired.
