[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello, 

I have an issue with guix home alias declarations. The aliases I declare in my home configuration always end up on top of the .bashrc file, while the documentation for the home-bash-service-type says "The aliases will be defined after the contents of the bashrc field has been put in the .bashrc file.". The following is the bash configuration I use 

(service home-bash-service-type 
(home-bash-configuration 
(bashrc (list (local-file ".bashrc" "bashrc"))) 
(bash-profile (list (local-file ".bash_profile" "bash_profile"))) 
(bash-logout (list (local-file ".bash_logout" "bash_logout"))) 
(aliases '(("egrep" . "egrep --color=auto") 
("fgrep" . "fgrep --color=auto") 
("grep" . "grep --color=auto") 
("l" . "ls -CF") 
("la" . "ls -A") 
("ll" . "ls -alF") 
("ls" . "ls --color=auto")))))

Hi,

I have the same issue since I started using Guix home.  Therefore I
did this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(service home-bash-service-type
	 (home-bash-configuration
	  (guix-defaults? #f)
	  ;; Needs to be done since aliases are put on top and
	  ;; would be overwritten by `guix-default`.
	  (bashrc (list (plain-file "default-bashrc" %default-bashrc)))
	  (aliases '(("ls" . "ls -lah --color")
		     ("grep" . "grep --color")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Disabling "guix-defaults" and now you aliases should be at the bottom
and work.
