The Guix package in Nix got removed by Ludo because it was so out of date, and our Parabola members had to do quite a bit of troubleshooting in IRC to fix the AUR entry. Diane/detrout put together a .deb for installing but I don't know that anyone has actually tested it. As far as old distros, there's also Debian old-stable and Ubuntu 12.04, both of which have about a year left on their support. I don't know what versions they have, but I'm sure its similarly old. --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --ibvzjYYg+QDzMCy1 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJXwrAzAAoJEPTB05F+rO6Tl48P/0QgvGJGW2Q1ouYnRi3TEr9r lDf9DAKVFoAiVQpGbMia1vKin/d3ACxxlwdcnsM7HjX2mmnEmIpiHpn4+cpO/LbG MjdVyRmdBc381BC8s9VTdc0Hc1ahOJ1FIT5TaXasyoh0UlShY4w3v6DmAXG1xZR4 xJYMq9NUMA5SYGjygWXMl+Q4pxtZHWe2P8Ky6nmxuUhcEyLI4k7kHiWQLBw3ehY2 MNmyjGyVJFY08UWvEnbqKrLj9aje9DuziQwmUBy2en3lnMwjIJlPil0jwVz6stAz 5s5FR68E1se0uqwUjnQ9Nc4uT2lc02avedLIiOe6bZMUtAdnuF1nTnlEnvy4L+Rx 706htdmTYVD4kNwvrbtO4mt1ibfquDXTld9awhjZjG2ZeXqpFmZlVj+t3sNVUvH2 /R3raY5jBJj2vRJC0oBRZng0CMljZhb6SI80HN7arxCcijJbDAq9jJEc506RsDap qSvi5MbVe9clAGJOHmCedCfOzBD9wFpOXCCAYXNIKQyfyXVrGqzG5A0AfuRwBhEP 2sg53O89R/43sbv8DiW3kwZ9XtJ+2DqPm3OJcD9cyohrO7saAdA7HHXXyt1O9SXG 56dsTZFlbEpFT/AU01VhESlq9JzuV+KsQfsVhjZSyKsieEN0P7FAKLNisQTwTJIL k+O3ZrZ7ZITd2KSAxh/L =LFdd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ibvzjYYg+QDzMCy1--
