[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

I’m using a modular machine configuration, i.e. the scheme file returning the
operating system definition imports several other custom modules with service
definitions etc in the same directory. This does not work well with unattended
upgrades. The attached patch allows adding search paths to the unattended
upgrade service. I’m not sure this is the best solution though. Maybe the
preferred way to add these modules is to a custom channel?

The second patch changes the default channels to #f, i.e. the system default
(/etc/guix/channels.scm), which feels more natural to me.

Cheers,
Lars
