Hello,

 

when executing

guix-package --list-available | grep mit

I see two packages:

mit-krb5 1.11 distro/packages/mit-krb5.scm:29:3

mit-krb5 1.11 distro/packages/sasl.scm:145:3

 

The first one is the really available one; the second one was contained in a file sasl.scm in an old branch. Both the file and the branch have been deleted in the meantime. However, I suppose the package exists still somewhere in the nix store.

 

Is this listing of obsolete packages a bug or a feature?

 

Andreas
