Yes, as mentioned in my previous email I am working with the channels.scm
file used by 'guix pull'.

I installed a foreign distribution of guix 1.0.1 i686 using the binary
installation steps from the manual.

I am currently running guix aca2bf5 but have a long-running process to
downgrade to 1b6c5e8 in order to find a substitute for ungoogled-chromium 78
