Thanks, now (with the latest “guix pull”), installing/upgrading/removing
should work in "guix.el".  If you (or someone else) wish to try it, you
may use:

  (setq guix-dry-run t)

(It has the same meaning as “--dry-run” option).

Also I would like to add support for deleting generations (to
"guix.el"), so I think it would be good to export ‘delete-generation’
from "scripts/package.scm".  WDYT?
