Hi,
My system is Ubuntu 16.04.
I ran './guix-install.sh' and got the message: "This script must be run
as root.". So I ran 'sudo ./guix-install.sh' and got an error message
saying that:
GUIX_PROFILE="${HOME}/.guix-profile"
source "${GUIX_PROFILE}/etc/profile"
the 'source' command doesn't work because ${GUIX_PROFILE} was never
created, ${HOME} being /home/clement, not /root.
To recover from this I had to manually delete /var/guix and /gnu, log as
root with 'su', and start again.

anybody has additional concerns about the installation script or the
installation instructions, please open a new bug report for it and we

Thank you for reporting this issue, Clément!
