Oh dear, correcting typos in the texinfo manual is already close to more
work than what the result is worth (but well, I am not complaining, I did it
voluntarily); now looking up where I marked my paper copy, checking how I
changed things in guix.texi and modifying the source code accordingly sounds
very tedious. I will give it a try.

I suppose it is not easily possible to import the doc strings automatically
into the texinfo file, in a way that we would keep a hand-written manual,
but with small pieces automatically extracted from the source code?
Maintaining two separate documents is always a bit painful.

Andreas
