Good idea.

I think we should use the (guix upstream) API directly because
‘guix-refresh’ can call ‘exit’ and it formats messages in a way that is
not consistent with the rest of ‘guix lint’.

To do that I think we’ll first have to move ‘%updaters’ to (guix
upstream), probably turning it into a procedure.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
