Hi,

The manual says ((guix) Invoking guix package):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
     This option can also be used to compute the _combined_ search paths
     of several profiles.  Consider this example:

          $ guix package -p foo -i guile
          $ guix package -p bar -i guile-json
          $ guix package -p foo -p bar --search-paths

     The last command above reports about the ‘GUILE_LOAD_PATH’
     variable, even though, taken individually, neither ‘foo’ nor ‘bar’
     would lead to that recommendation.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I've tried this just now, and the command says nothing about the
GUILE_LOAD_PATH:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix package -p foo -p bar --search-paths
export PATH="foo/bin"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is the documentation wrong, or is this a regression?
