This is correct. As far as Guix is concerned =E2=80=9Croot=E2=80=9D is jus= t another user account. > But If I do a guix pull only in my user account, it would mean, as far > as I understand it, the root account would not get security updates? Correct. Note that =E2=80=9Cguix pull=E2=80=9D alone doesn=E2=80=99t upgrade any ins= talled packages. It only gives you a new version of Guix which has access to updated packages. > What should be the procedure? You can have all users on the machine share the same guix and/or the same profile and upgrade just that. On a single-user system it also makes sense to just not install any software for the root user. --=20 Ricardo
