AFAICS, ‘guix environment -C’ already starts contains in a separate UTS
namespace (see ‘%namespaces’ in (gnu build linux-containers)).
However, it does not attempt to change the host name, since you get a
non-zero UID inside that environment, you cannot change it.
What we could do is add a ‘--uid’ option to ‘guix environment’ and/or a
‘--host-name’ option.
WDYT?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
