Message-ID: <e984882d50568d232f1565dbc63e60ec7d16eb34.camel@riseup.net> (raw)
Gnome Boxes is GUI app that manages virtual machines and OSs images to
run in them
It's a sort of Qemu for the rest of us.
It offers a menu with images of OSs to download and run
There are several versions of NixOs, among many others
There's a recipe for Guix System by Julien Lepiller, it's here
https://gitlab.com/libosinfo/osinfo-db/-/blob/master/data/os/guix.gnu.org/guix-1.1.xml.in
In their irc channel, the Boxes people infornmed me that they filter
out images that have no download url, as it seems to be the case with
this recipe
In fact, as you can see, the download url is commented out (on line 15)
Why is this ?
Was there a specific problem with the download url ?
It's be nice if I could pach this and have Guix System in the Gnome
Boxes menu
Thanks
