[$] Removing Guix from Debian

Date:
Tue, 02 Sep 2025 14:20:21 +0000

Description:
As a rule, if a package is shipped with a Debian release, users can
count on it being available, and updated, for the entire
life of the release. If package foo is included in the stable 
releasecurrently Debian13 ("trixie")a user can
reasonably expect that it will continue to be available with security
backports as long as that release is supported, though it may not be
included in Debian14 ("forky"). However, it is likely that the Guix package 
manager will soon
be removed from the repositories for Debian13 and
Debian12 ("bookworm", also called oldstable).
