Has anybody tried installing pijux in guix/GuixSD?

Recently I tried to install pijul-0.12 by importing it both from crates and nix, but both failed.

I want to start testing fresh pijul-1.0-alpha, but I need to find a way to install it in guix.

What sort of errors are you getting? A fresh install in nixos definitely works for me(either 0.12 or 1.0.0-alpha, at least as far as printing usage information), but I’m not clear on what the differences between nix and guix are besides “written in ~~emacs lisp~~ Guile”

I tried getting guix running in docker(I’m on mac) but didn’t even get as far as “download nixpkgs” unfortunately.

Well, I successfully compiled 1.0.0-alpha.48 on guix, but it doesn’t work with the Nest yet.

Sounds great, thanks for your work! I’m very late for publishing the next version to [crates.io](http://crates.io).

Note that nettle isn’t required anymore. What isn’t working with the Nest? The address to push over SSH hash changed, it is now `ssh.pijul.com`.

That explains everything. I’m now able to push my patches and restore my keyboard repository:
