Dear,
Maybe I am wrong and I miss one point.
If you have local packages that depends on Guix packages, then it is
not a big issue when the Guix packages are removed. Because you just
have to `guix pull --commit=<sha>' where <sha> points to a Guix commit
owning the required packages.
And if I have correct, you can put that in a manifest and then
instantiate an environment for your local packages.
Instead of splitting off all of Python 2 into a separate channel, why
not just put the python2 packages which need to be removed.
Then nothing breaks and it provides a picture of how many python2
packages necessary to Guix are still there.
Speaking about channel, instead of GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH=~/work/guix/bimbs
you create the file ~/.config/guix/channels.scm containing:
(cons* (channel
(name 'bimsb)
(url "file:///home/simon/work/guix/bimsb")
(branch "master"))
%default-channels)
Then:
guix pull
guix package -i <your-package>
Here the url file:///home/simon/work/guix/bimsb is a clone of
https://github.com/BIMSBbioinfo/guix-bimsb
But you can directly specify Git repo online etc.
Hope that helps
All the best,
simon
