Fixed in c49b45c917eff17122aea5f7a57ae4cef02f1003.  A missing import and
the wrong ‘raise’ was being used.

Yep, that’s what was intended and what happens now.  :-)

Thanks,

Switch to a new user, or simply log in as 'root' if you've never "guix
pull"ed with it, then

I think we should make `guix pull -l' return a value that can be used
meaningfully in deployment scripts.  For instance, a non-zero
exit code could mean this is a fresh user profile.

Thoughts?
