Subject: re: Drafting a Guix blog post on the FHS container Maybe I'll get around to poking at it sometime they have other firefox variants in there (icecat), so that might be a reasonable starting point. It's essentially an OS for people who think is too mainstream It'd be nice to get it packaged properly, but probably not high priority in terms of wide user reach. I haven't messed with it too much yet, so I wouldn't be surprised if the runtime dependency list below is missing some, which may result in runtime errors. I was experimenting with the on my laptop, and managed to get Tor Browser Bundle running with a relatively new feature `-emulate-fhs`. Possibly of interest to browser and/or guix folks. I think we're also generally in favor (within reason, case by case basis, etc) of taking patches to the browser itself for things which make downstream packaging easier or less complicated. If this is something you (or someone else) wants to build+maintain, then we can add you to the list of folks who get early notification of new browser releases, potentially breaking changes, etc. So I think in general we (applications team) don't want to support every possible distribution format out there/be smart about which ones we *do* support in terms of maximizing reach/going where the users are.īut that said there are a few downstream re-packagers (Tails, torbrowser-launcher/ BSD, etc) that we don't want to break. What is the procedure for proposing/making edits to the the Tor Browser wiki, anyway? ) may be more generally useful for running on Linux, since I imagine someone on any distro could run into problems if they happen to not have those installed. The Tor Project / Applications / Tor Browser.Maybe the wiki, on or around this page would be a good place to document this sort of distro-specific workaround in the meantime? Platform_Installation Was sharing the info primarily for other individuals running Guix who may want to run Tor Browser.
Makes sense! I'm just dipping my toe into Guix and definitely not looking to take on maintainership of packages there at the moment.
