Thank you for the feedback Ludo. I read the article and made some
customizations, but something about setting the gnome-custom package is
still resulting in the regular gnome meta-package being used. I did some
interactive debugging using Guile, and it seems like nautilus is being
successfully removed, which is why my suspicion is on the package
setting being invalid. I've also tried a myriad of different ways of
setting the gnome-custom package, none of which seem to be resulting in
nautilus being removed. This isn't about "nautilus" per-say, but rather
being able to customize how gnome is used on my system.
Here is my current config.
(use-modules (gnu) (gnu system nss) (guix packages) (srfi srfi-1) (ice-9 match))
(use-service-modules desktop)
(use-package-modules certs gnome)
(define-public gnome-custom
(package (inherit gnome)
(name "gnome-custom")
(propagated-inputs (remove
(match-lambda
((name _)
(string=? name "nautilus")))
(package-propagated-inputs gnome)))))
(operating-system
...
(services (cons* (gnome-desktop-service
#:config (gnome-desktop-configuration
(gnome-package gnome-custom)))
%desktop-services))
Any ideas?
