[Jérémy Korwin-Zmijowski]

I have no opinion, and nothing new to bring in the conversation. So let's do what fit the best to you.

Thank you for your advices.

Cheers,

Jérémy

Hum? instead of these:

exit
$ ./pre-inst-env guix build artanis

what you (Jérémy) would want seems:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[dev]$ ./pre-inst-env guix pull --url="" -p /path/to/your/custom
[dev]$ exit
$ /path/to/your/custom/bin/guix build artanis
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


This is a development environment issue that cannot happen when using a
‘guix pull’-provided ‘guix’ command.  I would close it as “wontfix”
since, after all, it’s just one of the many ways one can end up with a
non-functional development environment.

Even, I would close it as 'notabug'. ;-)
