Hi,
how to specify "dependencies of package" in a manifest?
Background: I'm using a manifest file for defining my development
environment and keeping up with the dependencies of some of the packages
is cumbersome.

There’s no standard procedure that does that currently (it’s buried in
(guix scripts environment)) but it’d be nice to have.

I had a tiny patch that export ’package-environment-inputs’ as
’inputs-of’ and used it to create profiles. But my motivation had been
killed by bug#38529. And now, it is rare that I need it and I use:
guix time-machine -C channels -- environment foo --ad-hoc bar
because it is really rare that I need the dependencies of more that one
package. Anyway! It could be nice to have.
Maybe this function could go to the module imported by manifest. WDYT?
All the best,
simon
