[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Using the configuration file /etc/config.scm it is fairly straight forward
to change shells for a given user account on GuixSD 0.14.0, such as using:

(operating system
   (users (cons (user-account
                         (name "user")
                         ....
                         (shell "/run/current-system/profile/bin/zsh")))))

, but for root this is impossible. Is it possible this feature could be
added?
