Trying to get an updated an old GuixSD installation via guix pull on a pre= 0=2E10 GuixSD returned an error message about gexp-modules not found=2E (d= etails can be provided if asked)=2E

I suggest we either test pulling from old versions (and fix errors) or mak= e it clear in the manual that pulling from very old GuixSD (older than 0=2E= 12?) is not supported=2E

Stating this clearly help people know what to expect=2E

What do you think?
