✨ NAME ✨

guix — the manual page for guix weather (GNU Guix) 1.5.0rc1.47-fc2f5a

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

guix weather [OPTIONS] [PACKAGES ...]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what does it do? bestie, it reports the availability of substitutes. that's it, that's the whole vibe check. it goes and checks whether the prebuilt stuff is actually out there so you don't have to build it from source like some kind of medieval peasant 😭

here's every flag, and yes we're doing all of them, we don't skip 💅

  • --substitute-urls=URLS — check for available substitutes at URLS
  • -m, --manifest=MANIFEST — look up substitutes for packages specified in MANIFEST
  • -e, --expression=EXPR — look up substitutes for the package EXPR evaluates to
  • -c, --coverage[=COUNT] — show substitute coverage for packages with at least COUNT dependents
  • --display-missing — display the list of missing substitutes
  • -h, --help — display this help and exit
  • -V, --version — display version information and exit
  • --list-systems — list available systems
  • -s, --system=SYSTEM — attempt to build for SYSTEM--e.g., "i686-linux"
ngl the -s one is giving main character energy, it's literally you picking which machine you're manifesting for 🌈
