I decided to proceed with the installations then, and wrote the command as root (by sudo -i ), to unpack the tarball in tmp folder: /# cd /tmp /# tar -xf guix-binary-0.9.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz And this is what it returned: tar: guix-binary-0.9.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz: Cannot open: No such file or directory I tried the same after saving the guix-binary-0.9.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz in tmp folder but again the some result. I'm trying googling and finding solution to this for now. Any help is most welcomed.

Thank you everyone, for your warm welcome and timely response. I downloaded the key from the download site and proceeded to=20 verify it. But the public key was required so I ran the command to=20 retrieve it:

Wild guess here, but might also be an issue in ipv6 routes, you could
try to force ipv4 with:

=C2=A0 wget -4 ftp://alpha.gnu.org/= gnu/guix/guix-binary-0.15.0.system.tar.xz.sig
