Hello,

I cannot easily compile it. Of course I have access to lsh from GuixSD
or Debian. Only it would be good to have GSRC as full GNU - working
packaging, that could be so easily installed on VPS/servers, and on
machines with some foreign operating system. But that would require that
all packages work together.

I also had problems when I had guix installed (as addon to ubuntu). It confuses

the paths. If I disable guix, by moving /home/carl/.guix-profile to an inoperative name

such as /home/carl/.guix-profile.inoperative, then gsrc is force to use the paths it was

set up with and things generally work for compiling. Then one can rename /home/carl/.guix-profile-inoperative to the proper name and move on in life.

Anyway it should work, and may very well work on the other servers you mentioned.

You might want to try on those other machines.
