Unless there are objections, I will apply the patch below to the manual
in the ‘version-1.0.0’ branch and update the on-line copies of the
manual.  That way the issue and workaround should be immediately visible
to someone who follows the “Installation instructions” link on the
download page.  (This text won’t be translated, but we’ll have to live
with it I guess.)

I’ll also send roughly the same text to info-guix.

Please tell me what you think!

I think we can publish a release in two to four weeks.  It should be an
easier one anyway.  We should take advantage of that time to gather
installation bug reports and to address them, and also to see how we can
automate the release process further.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
