The Guix package in Nix [0] is still on version 0.3 and it is failing to
build from source.
Does anybody want to take it over?
From #guix:
<domenkozar> anyone that wants to maintain guix in nixpkgs?
<lfam> domenkozar: I see the Nix package is very out of date. I do see
that it shares the Nix store.
<domenkozar> lfam: yeah and it's failing to compile

Surely it should just be removed. The binary install is easy enough for
someone already running Nix.

+1 That it’s this outdated suggests it’s useless. ;-)
I still have commit access to Nixpkgs so I’ve removed it.
Thanks,
Ludo’.
