One last thing: could you add a test?

Since such a test needs to build a whole bunch of things, it would only
be executed when a connection to a “real” store is available.  See the
examples in ‘tests/pack.scm’ and ‘tests/guix-pack-relocatable.sh’.  I
guess a test could go in either of these two files, or in a third one
similar to ‘guix-pack-relocatable.sh’.

Let me know what you think!
