@zimoun@social.sciences.re In general, it's a lot less boilerplate-like than a channel file. And yet, *most* manifest files just list packages by name. Maybe there is a useful intermediate level that can be put into a sandbox.

@khinsen@scholar.social About loading manifest.scm inside isolated Guile environment, it might be more annoying than expected. For instance, channels.scm files are usually very boilerplate and already two reports: https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/issues/8519 https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/issues/8573 Well, an option for being able to isolate might be helpful but it should not be the default for manifest.scm file, IMHO. @civodul@toot.aquilenet.fr
