Actually the best thing to do would be to put the debs into a signed 
repository, for example https://mirrorer.alioth.debian.org/ is a utility that 
lets you create your own apt-gettable repositories.

The guix on debian instructions would then be:

apt-key add (signing key)
add "deb http://<server>/debian guix main" to 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/guix.list
apt-get update
apt-get install guix

this allows apt-get update to get new versions.

The nix hydra paper implies that it can build packages and installers for non-
nix systems. I assume the guix version can as well?
