Hmm... I am reading guix.patches from news.gmane.io using Gnus.
Patch-set can be easily downloaded by selecting them and then invoked
gnus keybinding O m. Gnus can save them all in one file if you choose
the same filename while saving. For https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49969. I
downloaded the latest v8 [1/7 -- 7/7] (https://i.imgur.com/TSRZOtx.png)

Currently I pushed the those applied changes to this url
https://gitlab.com/declanqian/guix/-/commits/test_greetd/
so it can be easily rebased on master later.

Here is my unpolished Guix system config running seatd/greetd
https://gist.github.com/declanqian/79873926d3db23230b11cd9997a8c6f8

However, I didn't see the error from here
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49969#89. Quite the contrary, `./bootstrap
./configure ./make` worked just fine on my machine. No idea whether I
did something wrong.

I am using `guix shell -D guix --pure` from guix info manul.
Also build greetd using `./pre-inst-env guix build greetd` to be sure.
Here's the output:
 /gnu/store/fdjk9mmif1038g9qjxachfmdmhs8p0rr-greetd-0.8.0

Let me know if you want further information.
