That ‘mount’ can invoke ‘mount.nfs’ looks like a convenience to me, not
something highly critical.
I would say that dynamic composition (‘mount’ looking up ‘mount.nfs’ &
co. in $PATH) is OK in this case. The NFS service in GuixSD could
extend ‘profile-service-type’ such that ‘nfs-utils’ is indeed in the
system profile.
WDYT?
