IC. Indeed I missed that a different package was build. So I agree, this is not a bug. But i suggest to emit a more verbose message in this case, e.g.: guix build: package 'gpgmepp' will not be build, since it <<--- new has been superseded by 'gpgme'. 'gpgme' will be build instead. <<--- new Or (maybe easier to implement: guix build: package 'gpgmepp' has been superseded by 'gpgme'. Thus 'gpgme' will be build instead of 'gpgmepp'. <<--- new -- Regards Hartmut Goebel | Hartmut Goebel | [email protected] | | www.crazy-compilers.com | compilers which you thought are impossible |
