I wrote down some more silly things that I'm not sure I'll get to.

Imagine the following;

guix package -i guile-git
The following package will be upgraded:
guile-git    0.3.0 → 0.3.0   /gnu/store/h5y9c889q237a0sjzn68zflkmk3zz33f-guile-git-0.3.0

Instead of saying "upgraded" it should say "reinstalled".

then: the 'info guix' chapter 2.6.1 Locales
has this gem:
«Note that the ‘glibc-locales’ package contains data for all the
  locales supported by the GNU libc and weighs in at around 110 MiB.»

If you install it you'll note its well over 200MB, though. That at minimum should 
be updated in the info. Or more likely just stated that its large.


Thanks!
