... oops.  My fault for suggesting it.  I didn't have practical problems wi=
th dots before and some parts in Guix already use the dot
(latest-kernel.org-release, package definitions and the previous bootloader=
 that's in master for a long time).

But good to know.  I shall use no dots in identifiers in the future.  Any p=
reference of how to name derivations?
