I think there’s currently no easy way to cross build a full GuixSD
anyway, like ‘guix system build --target=mips64el-linux-gnu’ (the
--target flag doesn’t exist yet). Or did you experiment in this area?
I’d be curious. It’s designed to allow this (in particular because
gexps are cross-compilation-aware), but I’ve never tried.
