One problem may be that Guix on top of foreign distribution is not
able to update itself.
I still offer guix-0.12 RPM package for openSUSE installation as there
was no new release. Guix is able to update itself via `guix pull' but
it doesn't affect system installation of guix-daemon.
It would help splitting releases of Guix and guix-daemon.
Best regards,
