Subject: New reconfigure, creating a file under /etc
Date: Mon, 07 Oct 2019 00:12:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <z8ldnvlgtxxLvvuYHXAOZcGNZKob3ayoZrmjTK1MvhC1mOGnNFhaY2hskVNlTLWfS6yOevFlp-UZMdCBP75MReu1LiIF_gsLb1np724Y0Ig=@protonmail.com> (raw)

Hello help guix!, I'm trying to make a reconfigure, where I create a file under /etc.

This because, since I'm using gnome as my desktop environment, I want to add some functionalities on it to be more 'connected' to GuixSD, especifically, create the file 'os-release' with the content 'PRETTY_NAME=Guix-System"', this will make gnome to identify the system and display it on settings, thus a better natural 'connection' between gnome and guix.

Using 'etc-service-type' on my new reconfigure, it looks like this:

  (services
    (append
     (list (service gnome-desktop-service-type)
   (service etc-service-type
    (list `("os-release" ,(plain-file "os-release"
      "PRETTY_NAME=Guix-System"))))
   (set-xorg-configuration
    (xorg-configuration
     (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout))))
     %desktop-services)))

Trying to run this reconfigure will cause an error for 'more than one etc service', so I guess I don't have the correct syntax, I've on the IRC chat, but no response, because of this, I write an e-mail.

Thanks in advantage!
