As far as I know, the only ways of getting the latest and greatest of Guix is to use "guix pull" or a git checkout. The guix package inside guix corresponds to a more or less random git commit after the last release, and is only updated occasionally. In particular, the current version does not contain all the recent security fixes. So I can only recommend against using "guix package -i guix". Andreas
