I haven't used Guix in a while, but I found this tutorial about packaging. I guess you should use To get the source I think the best is to use |

you are quite correct. Guix actually has an in-built method to package crates, using However, since this project does not actually publish anything to crates.io yet is still divided into multiple crates, After that, just a bit of elbow grease, and you can expect my work to be done. |

Hi, any news on this? I'd be curious to see a first attempt at this if you have one. I can also try playing with a draft package and see if that works for me. |

Hello, I have not been able to make any progress because I have not gotten
advice on the correct way to package it, if you're willing to write up a
draft (if that's what you meant) I can help with patching paths and so on.
If you just wish to use helix, a binary package is available on some
channels.

Unfortunately I'm too much of a beginner with guix to try and package it. But I would like to start packaging other software of the same type written in rust and wanted to see an example (as well as using helix). I'll have a look for binary packages thanks. |

You can take a look at just, which I packaged.
https://packages.guix.gnu.org/packages/just/1.14.0/

This guix channel already has packaged helix (albeit two years ago). Its package description can perhaps help. |

I packaged latest master (00e9e5e) for Guix with most of the grammars, haven't investigated why a handful don't pass the pack phase, I suspect bad file names in the store(?). |

Guix is a package manager/operating system quite like Nix.
Currently, there isn't any package for the helix editor in the official channel, and I'm working on adding it.
I will respond here when it's available.
Any help from guix users would also be appreciated, since this is my first time packaging a rust project from scratch.
