From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Could you elaborate on why you think Guix will attempt to pull systemd? As far as I'm aware, Guix doesn't impose any hard requirement on systemd when installing it on a foreign system; the manual (particularly 2.1 Binary Installation) simply provides instructions for setting it up on systemd and Upstart.
I just found this blog post about setting up Guix on Void Linux if it helps at all.
Best answer, thx
