Dear Guix,

I'm running into the following problem:

$ guix pull

Is this a known problem? I assume this may be a problem with the 
"guix-science" channel (which would be my own fault of course).
If it is, then perhaps the UI could be improved to show why the package 
cache couldn't be built.
Perhaps, as a matter of diagnostics, it could build package caches 
separately for each channel to pinpoint which channel is causing the 
problem.

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen
