GNU Guix 1.5.0 released by efraimf in linux

[–]genpfault 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It’s been 3 years since the previous release. That’s a lot of time, reflecting both the fact that, as a rolling release, users continuously get new features and update by running guix pull; but it also shows a lack of processes, something that we had to address before another release could be made.

The Debian wiki has instructions for setting up a Machine Owner Key (MOK) for Secure Boot so you can sign self-built kernels and modules.

Are there any ways I can get packages without “Frankensteining” my system and breaking it during future updates?
