Yep, if that's the right path to where you saved your manifest file.
(Note that the -u option, upgrade, takes an optional argument, a regexp
matching which packages to act on. I prefer to explicitly pass in
`-u.` to match anything since I normally run this command from my shell
history, and I can then just add any other options I want without them
being interpreted as an argument to -u.)
\o/ it seems very interesting... Feeling like a lucky user to get note about
this option.
And I'll try it on my own command-line for the next update.

You can save the manifest file wherever you want, since you pass the
path into `guix package` with the -m option it'll always be able to find
it.
... OK, good to know. I'm learning something more!
Thanks,
Josh
Thank you!
