By my own observation, systems including Guix either officially or by third-party / community methods: Archlinux: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/guix/ Gentoo: https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/sys-apps/guix Debian: from past discussion and on request from Whonix iirc it is currently not possible due to Debian Packaging Standards (expected package behavior) or something along the lines, see guix-devel archives. Fedora: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/lantw44/guix/ Slackware: https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/guix/ is on 0.12, needs an update. Any slacker up for that task?
