Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! This is what I ended
up with:
```scheme
(use-modules
(gnu packages embedded)
(gnu packages flashing-tools)
(gnu packages firmware))
(packages->manifest
(list (make-arm-none-eabi-nano-toolchain-6)
dfu-util
qmk))
```
Then just simply run
```sh
guix shell -m manifest.scm -- qmk flash -kb ergodox_infinity -km plattfot -bl
dfu-util-split-left
```
And that worked like a charm.
I had forgotten that my ergodox is using different tools than my kyria.
Also the nano lib threw me for a loop. I was using the
`make-arm-none-eabi-toolchain-6` at first.

Oh, that sounds that it might be useful. Especially if it can flash it
too. As I have a few keyboards and not all keymaps are pushed upstream
(yet).
