Hi Gottfried,

I think the system roll-back only moves your current system generation
back by one. You still have to reboot.

You can also boot into the older generation manually, but the
roll-back command makes it stick (and eventually overwrites newer
generations).

I don't think the command affects the state of 'guix pull' (that's why
the roll-back step sometimes downloads additional package versions)
but I'm kinda new.

Kind regards
Felix
