Re: Self-contained Guix tarball

[Pjotr Prins]

The tar-ball works a treat!! Simply download and

   tar -C / --lzip -xvf guix-tarball-0.8.1.1140.tar.lz 
   export ~/.guix-profile/bin:$PATH

Add the build users, update the /gnu/store permissions and start the
daemon and that is it (which could be covered by a simple shell
script).

This should work on ANY Linux, provided kernel and architecture are
compatible.

Very nice. GNU Guix out of a box. No more installation pain. 

The tar-ball should go in the standard download directory. I would
name the tar ball with something 'binary', maybe add the supported
Linux versions (3.x?) and the architecture in the name. Just to be
complete. There may be other editions later.
