[PATCH 0/2] Making a 'guix' package with specific channels |

From: Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@inria.fr>
Hello Guix!
This patch series aims to allow users to create an operating system
that runs a specific Guix for ‘guix-service-type’, and in particular
for /run/current-system/profile/bin/guix: it could be the ‘guix’
channel pinned to a specific revision, or it could be ‘guix’ together
with additional channels. Here’s the example added in the new
section of the manual:
(use-modules (guix channels))
(define my-channels
;; Channels that should be available to
;; /run/current-system/profile/bin/guix.
(append
(list (channel
(name 'guix-science)
(url "https://github.com/guix-science/guix-science")
(branch "master")))
%default-channels))
(operating-system
;; ...
(services
;; Change the package used by 'guix-service-type'.
(modify-services %base-services
(guix-service-type
config => (guix-configuration
(inherit config)
(channels my-channels)
(guix (guix-for-channels my-channels)))))))
The resulting operating system will have both the ‘guix’ and the
‘guix-science’ channels visible by default. The ‘channels’ field of
‘guix-configuration’ above ensures that /etc/guix/channels.scm specifies
the same set of channels
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
