Commit ef8993e does that.

While I was at it, I took the freedom to adjust the format of these
lines (commit 9a91476) so that the version number would always appear in
the second column, while the output name no longer has a separate
column:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./pre-inst-env guix package -r idutils -u libtasn1 -i emacs libgc libgc:debug 
-n -p foo
The following package would be removed:
   idutils      4.6     /gnu/store/40nbigb0bghwqvnchjdxsrafbzxmybh8-idutils-4.6

The following package would be upgraded:
   libtasn1     3.6 → 4.1       
/gnu/store/52kdi2gmrl2ms92as0nsxbbkndqx07s4-libtasn1-4.1

The following packages would be installed:
   libgc:debug  7.4.0   
/gnu/store/98r76vrmvv3fvg26n3dzq3i72l25whl1-libgc-7.4.0-debug
   libgc        7.4.0   /gnu/store/cqhp23ak0kaa4kv1jdvzbsrkw41krczh-libgc-7.4.0
   emacs        24.3    /gnu/store/majxvz4dxcw75m1ni2hph3kbws400y94-emacs-24.3
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It’s still time to complain if you don’t like it.  :-)
