I would also really like such option for 'lint' and 'refresh' that can
take an operating-system definition so I can ensure a certain set of
packages are up to some standards and help me focus my efforts on my or
some fellow's configuration (especially w.r.t. security), rather than
randomly trying to maintain *everything* in the GNU Guix repo which is
quite exhausting and large work to take on. Starting from a place of
actual need for myself and some fellow's configurations looks like a
more achieveable goal mid-term.
