The model in Guix is that there’s a daemon to “emulate” a build “from
scratch”.
One can question whether the model matches reality, and this is what I
and fellow hackers looked at during the 2019 R-B Summit:
https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2019/reproducible-builds-summit-5th-edition/
(under “Extreme Bootstrapping”)
(The ‘wip-system-bootstrap’ branch still exists!)
Anyway, we’re drifting away from this patch series!
