Rather, =E2=80=98guix pull=E2=80=99 should work in terms of generations. One can already run =E2=80=98guix pull -l 42..77=E2=80=99 for example, whic= h does more or less what you suggest. That said, we can improve things incrementally, and I though that the proposed =E2=80=98guix pull --news=E2=80=99 would address the problem initi= ally discussed. :-) Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
