Welcome our intern for the Outreachy 2020-2021 round
We are thrilled to announce that Magali L. Sacramento (IRC: lemes) will join Guix
as an Outreachy intern over the next few months.
Magali will work on adding a
subcommand
to Guix showing the history of all packages. This will facilitate the use of
guix time-machine
and inferiors, as it will add support to easily search for a given package
version on all the defined channels.
Simon Tournier will be the primary mentor, with Gábor Boskovits co-mentoring, and the whole community will undoubtedly help and provide guidance, as it has always done.
Welcome, and looking forward to work together!
About GNU Guix
GNU Guix is a transactional package manager and an advanced distribution of the GNU system that respects user freedom. Guix can be used on top of any system running the Hurd or the Linux kernel, or it can be used as a standalone operating system distribution for i686, x86_64, ARMv7, and AArch64 machines.
In addition to standard package management features, Guix supports transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package management, per-user profiles, and garbage collection. When used as a standalone GNU/Linux distribution, Guix offers a declarative, stateless approach to operating system configuration management. Guix is highly customizable and hackable through Guile programming interfaces and extensions to the Scheme language.
