Installing Guix as a Complete GNU/Linux System - System Crafters
(systemcrafters.net)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

YES! That's my plan! I think I just figured out how to configure
flakpak
a little better.These are only part of the steps needed: https://flatpak.org/setup/GNU%20Guix
You also need to source
~/.guix-profile/etc/profile.d/flatpak.sh
in order to get the desktop icons to show up in the GNOME app launcher. (Usingguix home
for that!)Need to work on getting distrobox setup next. I was able to
guix install distrobox
, but it requires some extra configuration apparently.Btw, here's the
guix home
configuration file I used to add the contents offlatpak.sh
into my~/.profile
, in order to update theXDG_DATA_HOME
env var.
