Hi !!
I've just given the binary tarball a spin on Devuan. Worked almost flawlessly
(daemonize wasn't installed and I missed the part when it was mentioned because
I was a bit in a hurry but apart from that the overall experience was great —
the guix text art was surprising in a good kind of way).
I got the warning about the GPG keys, and I confirm I got a single warning for
both keys at once with a very simple click'n'paste command to import the keys
and fix the problem.
Once installed and the daemon started manually, it looks like it works (at
least the simple things I use do). To answer Leo's question if I understand it
correctly, I can guarantee you that absolutely no guix-related user or group
existed before I ran the script, and they have been successfully created (10
guix builder users named `printf "guixbuilder%02d" <$> [1..10]` and 1 group named
guixbuild).
It's so cool to be able to use Guix on that box (I'll soon reinstall it with
Guix I think but in the meantime it's there and that's handy). Thanks !
