Hello

guix​ instructed me to share the following information with you.  I've installed Debian 11.6 on a raspberry pi 3B+, did apt install guix​, but failed after a guix pull​. Before posting here i tried the same steps again just to make sure i didn't stumble on a Heisenbug

Your Guix version is quite old at this point, mostly because you're
using the Debian package.  Can you try installing from the binary
installer script instead?  Note also that `guix pull` requires quite a
lot of memory, than a raspberry pi might not have.

Best,

Yeah, I think the failure is more about the memory than the oldness.

Aside I do not know the exact state of aarch64-linux.
