    I come from Debian stable so…

    I’m currently ending the Guix manual. I want to add freetube and N64recompiled packages. Didn’t know it’s difficult to get patches or packages update to mainstream.

    It’s a bit funny that the records that Guix uses are not the baseline records of the Guile api but modified ones. And the documentation in some low-level regards is scarce.

    But using Guix opens up endless options and more importantly it helps you manage and learn how to setup operating systems.

      the best resource in Guix is searching the irc logs or reaching out to their irc directly. The manual only gets you so far
