>
>   GNU Guix is a transactional package manager and an advanced
>   distribution of the GNU system that respects user freedom.  Guix can
>   be used on top of any system running the kernel Linux, or it can be
>   used as a standalone operating system distribution for i686, x86_64,
>   ARMv7, and AArch64 machines.

>   In addition to standard package management features, Guix supports
>   transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package
>   management, per-user profiles, and garbage collection.  When used as a
>   standalone GNU/Linux distribution, Guix offers a declarative,
>   stateless approach to operating system configuration management.  Guix
>   is highly customizable and hackable through Guile programming
>   interfaces and extensions to the Scheme language.

Yesterday I installed Guix 1.0.0 on my Vikings D16 server.  I found out
that there are boostrap binaries ready for 32bit PowerPC. I tried to run
those on my Talos II, I expected a failure, but everything works fine.
I expect Guix 2.0.0 to run on the Talos II and even older Computers such
as the iBook G4.
