Conkeror is not the big one; it's a rather small wrapper around icecat
(in our case).  I don't know why "guix refresh -l pulseaudio" shows
conkeror and not icecat, but icecat is a really big and important one,
so I think it's better to commit this to core-updates, indeed.  Although
ISTR Ludovic told that core-updates is only for the real core packages
(that rebuild the whole world).

BTW do you still have problems with using guix repo through ssh?  I do,
I mean I can't push or fetch.  And as I see that other people commit to
the guix repo, I begin to think that it's only me who have this problem.
