Thanks.
More concretely: * if all channels are available --> ok, keep status quo * if no channels are available --> error, keep status quo * if some but not all channels are available, and there is at least one updated channel --> log the missing channels, and update the channels that _are_ available (but don't 'ignore' the missing channels by removing them!). * if some but not all channels are available, and none of the available channels were updated --> bail out, no progress was made and this might be due to lack of connectivity instead of lack of updates. ?Technically, your message can be interpreted as: if I only have a single channel, the Guix channel, and it isn't available, it should be possible to ignore it and proceed. (Proceed with what? It's the only channel, what is there to proceed with.) To actually implement this, we need to be precise.
