Hello,
I noticed that 'with-parameters' from (guix gexp) does not work with
Guile parameters used in package definitions. They are still set
in 'lower-object', but not anymore when the monadic procedure returned
by 'lower-object' is evaluated.
Attached is an example for a package wrapped by 'with-parameters', which
results in a file with "D" instead of "C" (it is not "A", because the
'arguments' field of <package> is thunked).
Is this intentional? I'm not really sure how (or whether) this should be
changed though.
Best,
David
