# Guix Scheme Containers and Environments

Run Scheme implementations in Guix containers/environments, and package
libraries for them.

## Chibi Scheme

Chibi is meant to be embedded and doesn't have a modifiable global
library path of its own. Instead it uses a modified package definition
of `chibi-scheme` with the module path `share/guix-chibi` (interpreted)
and `lib/guix-chibi/` (shared objects). To use this modified Chibi, pass
`-f guix/mcgoron/guix/chibi.scm` to `guix` in place of `chibi-scheme`.

Packages of only Scheme code intended for use in Chibi should use the
`chibi-scheme-build-system` build system, which will simply copy files
to the appropriate directory. Code that contains shared objects (from
`chibi-ffi`) should use `gnu-build-system` and copy the files in an
input. Pass `-L guix` to load the included Guix libraries.

## Guile

Guix is the package manager for Guile so everything is already taken care
of for us.
