Subject: help for non-root users to start using
Date: Sun, 19 Jan 2020 09:48:02 -0800

This guix-1.0.1 on x86_64 Fedora 30.

After installing as root, it's not clear from the manual how users 
should start.
I found out "guix pull" is the right thing.
Maybe add that to the manual? (Or add a "guix init" command.)

Here is the error that I get w/o "guix pull":

[mwette <at> localhost ~]$ guix install hello
