Hi Ricardo,

I managed working on this this evening already.

I fixed he tests and pushed as d7a9d72bb02a2a3b1a99183655bf878547116032.

Regarding the command "guix refresh": According to my tests only 
invocations not providing a package name failed (see below). Anyhow I 
did not manage fixing this:

options->update-specs need to return update-specs in all cases, and 
currently returns packages if no packages have been named on the command 
line.

guix/scripts/refresh.scm (options->update-specs), lines 252ff:

   (if (assoc-ref opts 'recursive?)
       (mlet %store-monad ((edges (node-edges %bag-node-type
                                              (all-packages))))
         (return (node-transitive-edges packages edges)))
       (with-monad %store-monad
         (return packages))))

Any hints?

These invocations fail:

/pre-inst-env guix refresh -t crane -u
/pre-inst-env guix refresh -t hexpm -u
/pre-inst-env guix refresh -t hexpm

All these invocations pass:

./pre-inst-env guix refresh --list-updaters
./pre-inst-env guix refresh -u python-flask
./pre-inst-env guix refresh -u python-flask=2.2.1
./pre-inst-env guix refresh --list-transitive python-flask
./pre-inst-env guix refresh --list-dependent python-flask
./pre-inst-env guix refresh -l python-flask

Untested:

--recursive — did nothing?
--select
