Hello everyone,

How do you guys handle programming in languages that want to package imports "their" way? I'm mainly referring to things like Python, Golang, or Rust. I'm in the middle of a small Golang project and need to import a uuid library that guix doesn't package on it's own. I could make the package which isn't difficult but that leads me down the tension between "Go project is more portable if I use go get ..." vs "Project is more reproducible if I use Guix".

How do you all do it?

i wouldnt say they are impossible, unless you are specifically refering to doing everything by hand

    Huh. I just checked and guix uncendors go. Very impressive.

    It looks like they let you override cargo crate deps with different versipns but they haven't managed to compile without cargo or crates yet.
