Are you using Guix yet?
If no, the first easy step is to install the "package manager". It
works on any recent Linux distro and it will not interfere with it.
Using the shell script helper, it is quick; and nothing to do. See:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/plain/etc/guix-install.sh
from the note in the manual
http://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Binary-Installation.html#Binary-Installation
If yes, the easy way to start is:
git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
cd guix
guix environment guix
./bootstrap
./configure --localstatedir=/var/
make
then you can tweak any scheme file and recompile with make. And to use
this checkout version, you can just run the ./pre-env-inst hook.
./pre-inst-env guix help
Hope that helps.
All the best,
simon
