Hello,
libjpeg-8 is listed by "guix-package --list-available", and built without
problem by "guix-build libjpeg-8". However:
$ guix-package -i libjpeg-8
libjpeg-8: package not found
Could this be related to the definition with inheritance?
(define-public libjpeg-8
(package (inherit libjpeg)
(name "libjpeg-8")
...
Or is it a bug in guix-package?
Andreas

(Note that you could do: guix-package -i `guix-build libjpeg-8`.)

This has to do with how guix-package interprets package names.
As noted in the manual, users can write either “guix-package -i guile”
or “guix-package -i guile-2.0.7”. In the latter case, guix-package
assumes that “2.0.7” is a version number, and then searches all packages
whose name is “guile” and whose version is “2.0.7”.
In your case, it searches for packages named “libjpeg” and whose version
number is “8”–which fails.
The fix it to not introduce the version number in the ‘name’ field, and
instead leave it in the ‘version’ field.
HTH,
Ludo’.

Thanks for the explanation. I was confusing scheme variable names and
package names, which are the same most of the time. With
(define-public libjpeg-8
(package (inherit libjpeg)
(name "libjpeg")
(version "8d")
$ guix-package -i libjpeg-8d
indeed works as expected.
However, now
$ guix-build libjpeg-8d
returns
libjpeg-8d: unknown package
Using the scheme variable name does not help:
$ guix-build libjpeg-8
libjpeg-8: unknown package
Could the behaviour of guix-build be made the same as that of guix-package?

Commit 5401dd7 does that.
There’s one difference compared to guix-package: guix-build doesn’t try
to parse “sub-derivation names” like guix-package does (after a
colon–see the manual), because that doesn’t make sense here since
guix-build builds all the outputs of a derivation.
BTW, you could have used:
guix-build -e '(@ (gnu packages libjpeg) libjpeg-8)'
Less convenient, but more efficient.
Thanks!
Ludo’.

It almost works now, thanks! I can do
$ guix-build libjpeg-8d
and
$ guix-build libjpeg-9
but
$ guix-build libjpeg
fails:

Concerning guix-package,
$ guix-package -i libjpeg
installs version 8d, not the newer 9.
Even by exchanging the order of the variables, the older one gets
installed. It looks to me as if the first found in alphabetical order is
taken, while it should rather be the last one (not in alphabetical order,
but lexicographically on the version number).

This is fixed by commit 9c9da07.
Thanks for testing!
