bug#44928: guix upgrade command does not accept a list of packages

Guix documentation says that `guix upgrade` is an alias for `guix package -u`, but the latter can upgrade a list of packages, while the former fails. ## Steps to reproduce 1. guix pull 2. guix upgrade --dry-run 3. Pick two packages from the list shown in (2), say, packages A and B 4. guix upgra

bug#44916: No option to add whisker menu to xfce panel after installing package xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin.

After doing a fresh install of Guix system using the graphics install menu and picking the xfce option, I decided to substitute xfce's "Applications" menu with the "Whisker" menu. Thus, I used command "guix install xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin" to install the package. After a system reboot, I opene
