Stratification of GNU Guix into Independent Channels, X-mas and Guix days!

[Pjotr Prins]

tis like packages under a X-mas tree

guix xmas add games
guix xmas add tex
guix xmas add paint
guix xmas add payamas

unlike debian these packages contain packages that can overlap too!

that would be interesting.

happy holidays Guix and thank you community! Hope to see you all at
Guix days in Brussels 2+3 Feb. Do sign up if you plan to come. We will
be there!
