The problem is that the Emacs Info reader incorrectly renders cross-references

Friendly bump.
Attached is a suggested diff.
A previous suggestion was made to change "system" to the proper noun "System",
as in the "Guix System", within the Binary Installation section. The change
would occur in a warning that moving unpacked binary tarballs as directed on
existing Guix in
steps in "Binary
Installation," I suggest we remove this sentence and revise the
introduction paragraph to make sure current Guix users skip this
section.

Ah, yes. That works. Thank you.
I'm trying to use plugins with the version of Plover packaged in Guix.
For some reason, Plover isn't showing the plugin interface. There is

isn't there.

The subject of a wiki came up in the Guix Documentation Meetup thread.
The last time it seems a wiki was mentioned was in 2015[fn:1]. Since it's
been more than 5 years and the Guix community has grown, I feel it's
worth bringing up again.
