Hi,

Interestingly,

  guix build guile-gcrypt --with-commit=guile-gcrypt=v0.2.0

would work just fine.

This is because the tags in the above examples actually point to a
“commit” object instead of pointing to a “tag” object as in the
guile-gcrypt case.  Weird.

Fixed with commit efa578ecaece67366b4b0e2266de7c2faaa4ae54.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
