Hello Guix!

Consider the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ mkdir /tmp/test && cd /tmp/test

$ cat <<EOF > manifest.scm
(packages->manifest
 (list (specification->package "make")))
EOF

$ guix shell
guix shell: error: not loading '/tmp/test/manifest.scm' because not authorized to do so
hint: To allow automatic loading of `/tmp/test/manifest.scm' when running `guix shell', you must explicitly
authorize its directory, like so:

     echo /tmp/test >> /home/maxim/.config/guix/shell-authorized-directories

$ echo /tmp/test >> /home/maxim/.config/guix/shell-authorized-directories

$ guix shell
