Means anyone on #Guix can run an x86_64 #Hurd virtual machine just by setting (type 'hurd64-qcow2).

Kudos to Yelninei for this work!

@Ephera @ruffsl They also missed that #Guix is fine with unfree stuff, they just choose not to talk about it, and like to promote #gnu. But the Guix you use is /your/ choice.

Something is wrong with the Flatpak package on #Guix. I installed it on my home profile, did a reboot and it breaks my Firefox theme + GTK icons. How does that work? 🙃

Just saw a translated #Guix error message that said "En el Sistema Guix..." and all of a sudden I like the moniker "systemg"

Things I figured out: how to get logged in as root to the mariadb, how to create a zabbix user, and how to populate the schema... Things I haven't figured out yet.. How to get zabbix to connect without using TLS.

So I'm setting up the #guix machine running #zabbix and it needs mariadb, so mariadb is installed, and I got around this bug: https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/issues/1391

So now I need to set up mariadb but I can't figure out what the cli command is. though I got mycli installed... but how do I get connected as root and create users and dbs and tables?

mariadb: mariadb-install-db calls resolveip with double prefix

`guix describe` outputs: ```text guix 6adf07b ``` `mariadb-install-db` calls `resolveip` with the install prefix twice: ``` $ guix shell mariadb $ mariadb-install-db --datadir=/tmp/mysql -...

I added zabbix agent and prometheus exporter to the #guix router and of course now I have to create a zabbix server to aggregate that info so there's another guix VM coming online... that's what I'm up to next. Soon it will be mine all mine ... MUAHHAHAHAHAHA sorry nevermind.
