Dear guixians,
During the operating system instantiation -- either through `reconfigure`, or
various `image` procedures) -- is the only possible way of controlling which
version of services and the packages installable by those services to specify a
particular commit in the channel config?
Inferiors help isolate a package manifest together with an user-controlled guix
commit, so I was wondering if anything such is possible with the system itself
(for example, during building of an image). In pseudocode:
(define inferior (inferior-from-channels ...))
(with-inferior inferior (reconfigure (operating-system ...)))
I am almost certain there is some gexp
mumbo-jumbo-derivation-of-the-whole-system one can use, but not yet entirely
comfortable with them.
