It's probably best also to get G++ in which case this command should do it if
you want version 5 of GCC:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-5 100
--slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-5
Firstly, a few brief points of note:
*The FSF recommends Free Software, not Open Source Software. There's little
practical difference between the two, but the philosophies are totally
different.
*The recommendation isn't because the service uses free software, but because
it can be used
The part I was talking of with PostScript and PCL still holds.
We have had this conversion one week ago:

Indeed. Something like that:
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-5

And by "source files", for non-functional data, it means: if we are
talking about music, the source files are the audio project, or the

improvisation (e.g.: a music improvisaiton session) or is easier to

It all depends on which position you will take. Remember to
differentiate "free/libre software" movement from "free/libre culture"
movement.
After being a free/libre culture activist/enjoyer/supporter for two

So I have been running free software GNU/Linux operating system for a few
years now. And like some of you, one of the more disappointing things to give
up were proprietary video games. It's one thing to give up a buggy,
spyware-ridden operating system, another thing to give up fun and often
As a personal rule of thumb I run `guix pull` *before any* `guix package`
command that involves `-u`/`--upgrade` or `-i`/`--install` options. I do
this both for root and for normal users, but this is just my personal choice.
First and foremost, you must decide if you will authorize your copy of
Guix to trust the default build/substitutes/derivations service provider
(that is, the Guix project itself), the installation guide you followed
explains how to trust the default substitutes service provider (at step
7), it's
No, the daemon is a service that allows you to interact with the guix package
store (/gnu/store). It is responsible for building packages on behalf of
users and for downloading pre-built binaries from authorized sources. I don't
believe guix notifies you of updates plus I don't see a need
tomlukeywood, I think you need to tell your operating system to use the new
GCC you installed. You can see here how to get GCC 4.9 working (just adjust
the command after the installation of GCC 4.9 to the GCC of your choosing):
Awesome.
It's still going.
I may have posted the link commands backwards as I was scrolling up the
history in the shell and probably posted them in the reverse order.
What does the daemon do? Look for updates?
I guess I might try to reverse the process done choosing systemd or maybe I
can
haha, yes it does look that way. You should only need to install the glibc
locales as your normal user. I did initially as root but then had to repeat
it for my normal user account. In fact, I believe each unique user on the
machine needs to install the glibc locales. So once the hello
Thanks again doolio. But eeks, what have I done!
I saw running systemctl list-units:

This may also help resolve your issue.

Regarding build users: As far as the documentation goes: The average
users need not to be members of the "guixbuild" group.
As I've explained I didn't encounter this error. If you run 'top' and search
(CTL-L) for 'guix' do you see the guix-daemon running? If so then you've been
successful in starting the daemon. Then I suggest you restart your machine
and see if the daemon is running after booting up again by
In which order did you attempt to make the series of `ln` commands?
It seems you made it in inverse order.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, Trisquel 7 doesn't use systemd entirely. It
does have Upstart instead (this is what I chose in the step that you
are right now).
Yes, for that step I had to use the Upstart commands instead. It seems on
Trisquel 7 at least the init system is Upstart and not systemd.
# ln -s ~root/.guix-profile/lib/upstart/system/guix-daemon.conf /etc/init/
# start guix-daemon
As for adding your user to the guix group that should have

So I did move it to /tmp and was able to proceed.

how can install guix package manager in trisquel
Perhaps consider installing the Guix package manager. With it you can
currently install any (or all) of gcc 4.7.4, 4.8.5, 4.9.4, 5.4.0, 6.3.0 (see
link below) so it would be possible to use the gcc specifically required by
your program. The Guix packages are based on a rolling release model
I am compiling a program that requires at least GCC 5 but GCC 5 is not in
