Antwane,

Great that you got it to work! There are some landmines left that I'd like to point out so they don't bite you later (what? they're mixed-metaphor cartoon landmines!):

should use string-join instead of string-append

Thanks for the suggestion, but I know that use of string-append is correct
based on example code from
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Base-Services.html.

Yes, but *your* use of it isn't. :-) You didn't add any newlines so everything ends up on one line, which can't work [well].

(uri
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/M0Rf30/https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trustcrypto/trustcrypto.github.io/master/49-onlykey.rules";)
      (sha256
       (base32 "1pj9i4hp0d74073x1qqwigd0cyriamg65zmx2j98mi0k66qrhcxa"))

This URL is bogus? It probably works for {you,now} because Guix is content-addressed and you've previously downloaded a file with that hash to your store. If it ever gets garbage collected, Guix will be unable to download again.

I advise against using an external file for such a trivial rule at all, and simply fixing the string-append until it works (and the actual file contents look correct).

Kind regards,

T G-R
