Re: [PATCH] doc: Clarify need to update search paths on foreign distro (was Re: Feedback of the GNU Guix manual)

[pelzflorian (Florian Pelz)]

Hello Matt, Vagrant and all.  As I understand, we should not advice all
users to add these exports to .bashrc, because users with
guix-install.sh’s sys_create_init_profile or Debian’s
/etc/profile.d/guix.sh do not need it.

Instead, there already is advice for .config/guix/current documented in
the Guix manual’s Getting Started section.  The advice should be a
cross-reference that users should follow the steps from Getting Started,
so search paths are set up properly instead of advising to set PATH and
INFOPATH.

The advice of setting PATH really should go away.

Regards,
Florian
