What follows is version 2 of the patches, which I=E2=80=99d like to push wi=
thin
a day or two.  The main changes are:

  1. Added documentation for channels and ~/.config/guix/channels.scm.
     In particular I added a warning about compatibility that summarizes
     what we discussed.  Please let me know what you think.

  2. Added -C/--channels option to =E2=80=98guix pull=E2=80=99 to specify a=
 channel
     file.

  3. Fixed =E2=80=98update-NEWS.scm=E2=80=99, which assumed that the last i=
tem of
     (%package-module-path) is Guix=E2=80=99s own set of modules.  We also =
find
     this pattern in guix-artwork.git/website and probably in other
     places, so we=E2=80=99ll have to adjust them.
