So you would apply the patch I sent over a fresh checkout of Guix, like so: git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git cd guix patch -p1 < the-patch Then you need to build Guix from that checkout: https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Building-from-Git.html Finally, you can reconfigure your system from that checkout with: sudo -E ./pre-inst-env guix system reconfigure … Let me know how it goes! Thanks, Ludo’.
