Trying to understand what that would imply, I stumbled upon my ignorance of how to test attempts at implementing that. Would the following be useful : make + pre-inst guix system container in a git checkout / branch with modifications to nix/libstore/builtins.cc::builtinDownload (for the server part) Then how to implement the "asking the server to change its proxy setting" ? Where should I look ? What UI (client-side) ? `guix daemon set-proxy` or something like that ? I.e. I'm willing to try, but will need guidance... --=20 Vincent Legoll
