[...]
But currently it's not possible to install 2 (or more) packages with the
same name. So a user can't have guile 2.0 and guile 1.8 in the same
profile. The same thing with python: there is no ‘python2’ package.
Both python packages have “python” name and can't be installed in the
same profile, as far as I understand.
