We advise system administrators who install Guix, both from the
installation script or @i{via} the native package manager of their
foreign distribution, to also regularly read and follow security
notices, as shown by @command{guix pull}.
-For Debian or derivatives such as Ubuntu or Trisquel, call:
-
-@example
-sudo apt install guix

-Likewise, on openSUSE:
-
-@example
-sudo zypper install guix

If you are running Parabola, after enabling the pcr (Parabola
Community Repo) repository, you can install Guix with:
@example
sudo pacman -S guix
@end example
+For other package managers with a @var{guix} package, you should be able
+to install it like any other package.

The Guix project also provides a shell script, @file{guix-install.sh},
which automates the binary installation process without use of a foreign
distro package
