Thank you to share !!
And nice paper ! :-)


Do you plan to implement a version with the GWL ?

`guix --version` reports 0.14.0.

Weird ?
But if the kernel is too old, then somehow the install is not really
complete. Right ?

Yes, it is an old Suse.
My ideas was to be able to fetch up-to-date softwares without
modifying the current configuration (lazy sysadmin's work ;-)

If I understand well, the shortest path seems to install a new system
from scratch, as GuixSD or Debian.


Thank you for all your explanations.
You save me some time.


All the best,
