Hi Marius!
Thanks for commit 84a0c6ff63!

My bad, I had introduced this error, but I did not notice because =make=
ran fine, =guix pull= too (at first, see below0.
This is a pitfall that has bitten me before and I still find it puzzling
to crack because:
1. Build guix does not complain.
2. It brings error at seemingly random spots. In this case, it errored
for me when I "guix pulled" a new channel that had nothing to do with either
graphics.scm or game-development.scm.
Should we highlight this in the manual?
Better: could we detect this during "make" and report a relevant error?
