Generally, "tarball" is imprecise, hence the need to explain what it co= ntains 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 bei= ng 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.
