I can only make comments about the text. :D

You fixed it in patch 8 anyway, so you can ignore it: Docstring should
be "Display news…" with s.

“arbitrarily” with -ly.

German would be:

(de "Neuer Mechanismus, um Neuigkeiten über Kanäle anzuzeigen.")

German would be:

(de "Sie lesen diese Meldung mit Hilfe des neuen Mechanismus, um
Neuigkeiten über Kanäle anzuzeigen — Glückwunsch! Mit diesem
Mechanismus können Kanalautoren Ihren Nutzern @dfn{Einträge zu
Neuigkeiten} mitteilen, die diese sich mit @command{guix pull --news}
anzeigen lassen können. Führen Sie @command{info \"(guix.de) Aufruf
von guix pull\"} aus, um weitere Informationen zu erhalten.")

(Of course the German manual does not actually contain translated
information yet, but whatever.  It would be nice if the Translation
Project would accept new PO files without marking PO entries as fuzzy
that changed since the old version at the TP.)
