From 30810aff713149d53cb25f36ae6d721ec66385da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Prafulla Giri Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2019 12:48:52 +0545 Subject: guix-install.sh: Create an init profile during installation MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Create an init profile (/etc/profile.d/guix.sh) during installation for better integration with foreign distros. This file, read by login-shells sets a few environment variables (PATH, GUIX_PROFILE, GUIX_LOCALE, along with XDG_DATA_DIRS) and makes guix-installed packages readily available for the users. Other environment variables, as listed by `guix package --search-paths=prefix`, are also exported. Checks are in place to prevent the init profile from needlessly polluting the user's environment. * etc/guix-install.sh (sys_create_init_profile): New function to create /etc/profile.d/guix.sh init profile.
