The recommendation I got for aarch64 was to run 'sudo ./pre-inst-env
guix-daemon ...' I think if we do have people starting from the source
and installing that way then 'sudo ./pre-inst-env guix-daemon...'
followed by 'sudo ./pre-inst-env guix package -i guix' would have them
in the same spot with guix-daemon being in /var/guix/..., allowing them
to stop the pre-inst-env daemon and starting it with the systemd/upstart
service.
