so far I’ve been updating Haskell packages in bulk in a
single commit. See 49a320aaa6fb4c20d6b30c56c35a8c7ffceed822 or
b97f549b14402421fcfb360ddd4cff7de93b9af0 for example. I also used custom
scripts last time, because `guix refresh` was not sufficient to update
all fields required (arguments, inputs, …). This is hopefully different
this time.

Cheers,
Lars
