Hi Matt, Matt writes: > The explanation of "a self-contained tarball providing binaries for Guix and for all its dependencies" was reduced to the simpler "archived binaries." Generally, "tarball" is imprecise, hence the need to explain what it contains in this context. Further, it's jargon, may not be familiar to some readers, and isn't relevant to the point of the introduction, that Guix may be installed without needing to compile and why that might be desirable. > > Specific mention of installing Guix's dependencies was removed. Guix being installed implies that its dependencies are also installed. I don't agree here: it's often the case in Linux-land that binary archives are provided without their dependencies included, assuming that the user already has them, often by installing them via their own package manager. Keeping the mention that it is self-contained and that the dependencies are also included might clarify the situation for some users. Best, -- Josselin Poiret
