Hi Guix,
trying to add a new skeleton file in a sub-directory in newly created
users home, skeleton files add in read-only mode.
since there shouldn't be any difference between adding a skeleton file
in user home directory, or in a sub-directory under user's home, I
assume this might be a bug related to skeleton file creation.
following configuration could be used to reproduce this issue:
Toggle snippet (32 lines)
(use-modules (gnu))
(define (test-skeletons)
(append
`(("test" ,(computed-file
"test"
(with-imported-modules '((guix build utils))
#~(begin
(use-modules (guix build utils))
(mkdir-p #$output)))))
("foo" ,(plain-file "foo" "foo is writable"))
("test/bar" ,(plain-file "bar" "bar is read-only")))
(default-skeletons)))
(operating-system
(host-name "guix.test")
(timezone "Asia/Tehran")
(locale "en_US.utf8")
(bootloader (bootloader-configuration
(bootloader grub-bootloader)
(target "/dev/sda")))
(file-systems (cons (file-system
(device (file-system-label "my-root"))
(mount-point "/")
(type "ext4"))
%base-file-systems))
(skeletons (test-skeletons)))
generated skeleton files status:
