Whoa. Just performed a update of from 107 to 114. Downloading and installing the dependencies and the final product took over two hours... 🤯

@worldsendless yeah, this is why I don't install Firefox with Guix, I use Flatpak instead

Follow

@daviwil Are you using GUIX system with flatpak? If flatpak is just another repo, how do I tell guix to prefer that Firefox instead?

@worldsendless Guix doesn't understand Flatpak inherently, you just have to install Flatpak via Guix and then add the Flathub repo to Flatpak, then install Firefox. It's a separate software management stack

@daviwil The long build times are gross, but "separate software management stack" is a real pity for Guix...
