Hi Andrew,

Sorry for the delay and thanks for your feedback.

I went with #1, but that doesn’t prevent us from considering #2 as an
improvement going forward.  Conses, Andrews: you’re welcome to share
your thoughts!

The (guix deprecation) module provides facilities for that.  If that’s
too restrictive, use ‘warning’ from (guix diagnostics).

Thanks!
