Hello,

> hmm, I am on i686 =E2=80=93 is the trick still applicable?

Sure, you can try the command I gave with
"/gnu/store/ly0x0dk2qm0jk3fgwsrnl5cy8a1ybwkk-guix-900ef20b1.drv" for
instance.

ut that is ok, right?

Yes, you can do that.  =E2=80=9Csudo -i guix pull=E2=80=9D means you=E2=80=
=99ll be updating
root=E2=80=99s Guix.  You=E2=80=99ll probably want to update your user=E2=
=80=99s Guix as well,
with just =E2=80=9Cguix pull=E2=80=9D.

Right, you have to get yourself a newer Guix first.  :-)

HTH!
