Hi,

on my effort to solve the problems when updating to guix 0.14.0, I
stepped over this simple question:

Is the installed guix the current one, resp. the current one my guix
knows of? Is there anyway to find out whether 20170924.19 or
0.13.0-6.a9468b4 is newer?

guix installed:

    # guix --version
    guix (GNU Guix) 20170924.19

guix knows to my guix:

    # guix package -A guix
    guix    0.13.0-6.a9468b4


From the usability point of view, this information needs to be ovbiously
available. Users should easily be able to to determine which version is
the newer one.

Since I do not know how these different version numbers are generated, I
can't make any suggestions, though. Sorry.
