<snape>I don't remember if there was a specific goal about it in the future <kurimi>Hello how can i install grub with --removable flag? my motherboards need it to boot (UEFI) <civodul>normally 'guix system init' runs grub-install on your behalf <civodul>so there's no way to pass additional flags currently <civodul>that should rarely be necessary though <kurimi>do i have go to bios, then to efi shell then find EFI and GuixSD and run grub manually? <civodul>'guix system init' installs /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst so you could run grub-install manually from that <civodul>if UEFI is enabled on your machine, the installation image detects it <kurimi>It is... but if im installing grub (on arch) i needed to do grub-install --removable <mbakke>Perhaps grub-efi-bootloader can be extended to take a (removable? ) argument. <pushcx>Can guix install packages from nix channels? I'm not having any luck with searches trying to look this up. <partj>hey, i just rm'ed /gnu instead of ./gnu, and apart from the store that is ro, i don't have anything else left in /gnu, what should i do? guix system init from a live distro? or something simpler? <pkill9>i don't think there is anythingelse in the /gnu directory other than /gnu/store <partj>oh cool, i thought i ls'ed it some time ago and found some other files <pkill9>yeah there's nothing else in mine other than /gnu/store <partj>oh also, my guix info installation is kinda bad, the manual is only available in french <roptat>partj, it may be because you have guix installed in your profile <roptat>also, you should have ~/.config/guix/current/share/info in front of your INFOPATH <roptat>(and I think you can still access the English manual with `info "(guix)"` <partj>nah there's no guix in my profile, the variable is there, but your workaround works great so whatever <kmicu>Hi pushcx, that’s not possible. <roptat>civodul, I'm building a container, and using ./pre-inst-env I get an error in info-dir-builder. I can still build the container without pre-inst-env, where guix is at the same commit as my repo... <cbaines>roptat, sometimes the .go files get out of sync. You could try deleting them, and running make to generate them again? <Laalf>kmicu: you can indeed install nix and run some applications just fine <partj>I don't really understand the philosophy behind configuration with guix, should I use only package configurations or also use /etc for some packages? <Laalf>did he just completly ignore my message before? <kmicu>Laalf: that’s possible but not related to Guix (the package manager). (I assume the original questions was not related to running Nix on GuixSD). <Laalf>kmicu: then guix import exists. i think for very simple programs it does work <kmicu>(Also Guix was forked from Nix and have some misleading Nix compability paragraph in its manual.) <kmicu>(where ‘misleading’ is to strong word and I should use ‘outdated’, sorry for that *kmicu adds missing ) to calm lispers’ souls. <partj>Laalf: so how should i go about running dnscrypt-proxy as a forwarder for dnsmasq? dnsmasq doesn't expose the required options afaik <lovelyn>is there an easy way to add a directory to the store? <Laalf>partj: go edit the package itself. <Laalf>lovelyn: noone edits the editor, noone edits the /gnu/store <lovelyn>Laalf: i meant like what guix download does, but for a whole directory <Laalf>lovelyn: how would you imagine that to work? Ever tried to hash a folder? <Laalf>this is not 9front. (sadly?) <lovelyn>i'd imagine it would work like the git downloader only with a local directory instead <lovelyn>i'm aware of the download limitation, that's why i was asking <samplet>lovelyn: I don’t know if you can do it with the command line interface, but in Scheme you can use the “local-file” procedure. <samplet>It is documented in the G-Expressions part of the manual. ***lede_ is now known as lede
<roptat>civodul, rebuilding my repo did work <roptat>ah, running the container, I get this error message every few seconds: Oct 6 22:36:22 localhost /gnu/store/knrgbc9r6bfdfylmj4bcqd33yjx4nakg-mingetty-1.08/sbin/mingetty[197]: tty2: No such file or directory <kristofer>Heya! Is anybody using exim for local delivery of incoming mail from the internet? I'm wondering if my setuid for exim is incorrect. The exim daemon crashes on the local_delivery part of the process. <kristofer>(setuid-programs (cons #~(string-append #$exim "/bin/exim") %setuid-programs)) leaves me with /run/setuid-programs/exim --
