Subject: bug#66705: ‘guix shell -CW’ provides a Guix command without extra channels
Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2023 18:26:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87msw9fgpp.fsf@inria.fr> (raw)
‘guix shell -CW’ dismisses extra channels available in the original
Guix, as illustrated by this example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix time-machine -C <(echo '(cons (channel (name (quote guix-hpc)) (url "https://gitlab.inria.fr/guix-hpc/guix-hpc.git")) %default-channels)') -- shell -CW coreutils -- guix describe

$ guix time-machine -C <(echo '(cons (channel (name (quote guix-hpc)) (url "https://gitlab.inria.fr/guix-hpc/guix-hpc.git")) %default-channels)') -- describe

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This is due to the fact that ‘-W’ (‘--nesting’) is implemented by adding
the outer ‘guix’ to the container’s profile, without also adding its
companion profile entries (those that provide channels).
