testing issues after adding package to guix

[Kristofer Buffington <kristoferbuffington@gmail.com>]

Hello guix!

I am having problems testing a package I just added to guix.
I have been talking with rekado on #guix about it. I have successfully
built guix from git and now am having trouble linting the new package
definition:

kristofer@libre ~/src/guix [env]$ ./pre-inst-env guix lint guile-wiredtiger
;;; note: source file /home/kristofer/src/guix/gnu/packages/databases.scm
;;;       newer than compiled /home/kristofer/src/guix/gnu/packages/databases.go

guix lint: error: guile-wiredtiger: unknown package
