Tobias, John,

thank you for this explanation!  My first thought was… oh, something
broke during my installation.  But I was only spoiled by not resetting
my mind from the usual suspicious package managers.  Next time I will
think more about the nature of using a purely functional system, of
course it makes sense.

Do you think it is worth to spend a sentence about this in the
documentation (I must have skipped this if it is already there)?

And, by the way, thank you for the warm welcome!  I fully believe in
the concept and philosophy, so count me as a new user, ready to stay.

Kind regards,
Martin
