Hello,

Janus Troelsen <ysangkok@gmail.com> skribis:

> I know FreeBSD is not officially supported, but I don't see why it should=
n't be? Many GNU tools work on FreeBSD.

Guix depends on the availability of the GNU C Library, with either the
Linux-libre kernel or the Hurd.  So it cannot be used at all on FreeBSD.

Now, an interesting project would be to use Debian=E2=80=99s port of the
GNU=C2=A0libc to the kernel of FreeBSD (GNU/kFreeBSD) in Guix=E2=80=A6

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
