Hi Simone,

Well the really gneat distro on which guix works best is the guix system :=
p

Seriously, if that's not an option, then any other distro will work=2E Gui=
x is designed to be completely isolated from any other package manager, so =
no bad interaction is possible=2E The only thing you have to remember is to=
 not mix package sources in a development project=2E

For a list of distros we could recommend, see the list of fully free distr=
os on https://www=2Egnu=2Eorg/distros/free-distros=2Ehtml=2E
