I don't think this is the case. I've packaged several things for Guix, and patches are rare. Stuff that has good configuration (e.g. uses GNU make, and thus accepts --prefix) will be fine.
- greenhouse_gas 9y agoWait, I thought that guix (like nix) keep their full configuration in flat nix or lisp files (like https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Using-the-Configuration-System.html https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Using-the... )? I never really tried guix, but that's how nix works ( https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/index.html https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/index.html ). So how does Apache configuration on upstream (meaning, how it's configured on Windows/Linux/FreeBSD) correlate to how it's configured on nixos/guix?
- nextos 9y agoIt depends. You can install it with nix/guix and configure it as in any other Linux distro. Or, if it's a service you want to make the configuration totally reproducible, you can use https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Services.html https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Services.... interfaces for those packages that have some written for them. But there's nothing wrong with regular dotfiles.
