#guix

WIP web frontend for guix’s GCDs! I will also show voting results and timeline for the different phases.

Made with #guile haunt.

Thoughts?

#Guix migrating to Codeberg
https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2025/migrating-to-codeberg/

@hweimer That’s certainly the case with #GUIX compared to #NixOS. GUIX was able to do a lot of very advanced stuff with build closures while Nix had backwards compatibility to worry about. Nix still scans the entire nixpkgs to build a package for example.

Nix still leads solely because of the network effect and flakes but IMO, this clunky build issue will eventually cause #Nix to be entirely replaced by something shiny and new that does this without drawbacks in the long run.

Are @daviwil 's #nonguix installation instructions still the best non #guix start? https://wiki.systemcrafters.net/guix/

I tried #Guix system but struggled with missing packages and Flatpak not working reliable. Luckily Guix complements other distros like Debian for managing configurations and installing applications. Applications appear in the menu after logging in again. So Guix on Debian is my next pursuit for a more declarative linux setup.

Updated another three packages in GNU Guix:
- gnu: thermald: Update to 2.5.9.
- gnu: jc: Update to 1.25.5.
- gnu: btop: Update to 1.4.3

The first step to getting Drachi playable for Spring Lisp Game Jam:¹
It has an itch.io page now:

https://arnebab.itch.io/drachi?secret=aDM8NcvS0eI76PRQTkuwoPTMDc
https://hg.sr.ht/~arnebab/drachi

Can I promise that I will get this done? Certainly not. But I will try.

I’m starting from a minimal prototype (a dragon who can jump). Needed steps:

- add puzzles when opening chests
- add more levels
- add music
- package with #guix pack as a playable game (for Linux)

i like to use #guix home and #git for my configuration, this is so amazing , why people are not using it yet?

Just announced a draft GCD to do regular (annual) releases of #guix .

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2025-05/msg00081.html

Any #guix user or contributor is welcome to take part in the discussion as we guide ourselves toward #consensus

#guix is a rolling release so users have the latest and greatest software immediately. But regular releases are great for new users, new installs and help the project improve software quality through testing and bug-fixing!

Look forward to your thoughts and comments ...

LucidPlan proudly announces version v0.3.8 of the project:

https://codeberg.org/jjba23/lucidplan

#foss #project #management for everyone ( #selfhosting )

work more #agile in your team thanks to a fast-paced no-nonsense-workflow and customizability, also thanks to being written in #lisp ( #guile #scheme ) and using #guix

This tool results of years of experience using proprietary systems like Jira/Trello, and experiencing the frustrations they bring.

If you are in Bologna and like the idea of a #bonfire instance running upon #Guix System and all of its little parenthesis, tonight we are waiting for you at

https://indieweb.social/@bonfire/114476553336858779

We'll collectively setup a Bonfire instance deciding the rules that the #community will follow, how #moderation should be done, which #CodeofConduct to enforce. All on an instance defined with Guix declarative, roll-backable solid take on configuration.

How can you miss it?

SSS (The Supreme Sexp System) proudly announces version v2.3.15 of the project:

https://codeberg.org/jjba23/sss

SSS is a Lisp machine adventure with #gnu #linux, #guix where the #hacking culture is celebrated.

We now have a start in a declarative #firefox configuration written in #lisp ( #guile #scheme ).

Advanced #emacs #hyprland #wayland #rofi #alacritty #waybar and more, in a hacker friendly setup.

#Guix GCD 002, “Migrating repositories, issues, and patches to Codeberg”, has been accepted following a two-month discussion that led to many improvements
https://codeberg.org/futurile/guix-org/src/branch/master/gcd-voting-summary/gcd002-voting-summary.md

Many thanks to @futurile for collecting the deliberation statements!

Thanks to @jing@mastodon.jing.lgbt, mirrors for Guix substitute servers are available in Japan!

But some issues still need to be addressed to make them more usable and possibly making more mirrors available.

#guix

Updated #neomutt to the latest version in #guix It's mutt with additional capabilities, it's been a fun few days investigating it. Really like the #imap is built-in and working nicely.

Might write a blog post about it - so little time!
