Hi Florian,
Thanks for the help!
This is what I get:
```
scheme@(guix scripts pull)>
(display-news %current-profile)
guix repl: no channel news since generation 28
hint: Run `guix pull -l' to view the news for earlier generations.
```

What are the argument types of profile and previous in
`generation-file-name`? strings or absolute path to a profile and string?
Could you share an explicit example of how to call `generation-file-name`?
It would be much appreciated. Maybe we can work on documenting the
function further here for others as a result of that.
all best,
jgart
