Subject: bug#60688: guix: home: environment-variables: Breaking change 73684dc90
Date: Mon, 9 Jan 2023 01:27:12 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <NLIv7k---3-9@kabelom.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 424 bytes --]

Before this commit it was possible to build a guix home configuration where home-environment-variables-service-type could ungexp any file-like object such as a package. The commit 73684dc90 forces it to be a string, which contradicts the documentation for guix. 

Concretely, guix home environment test-home.scm worked before that commit where test-home.scm is attached to this email.
