Hello Pierre,

Thank you for working on this!  Let us know if you have more questions.

Unfortunately Guix doesn't.

Instead you could use ‘(inputs …)’ and ‘(native-inputs …)’ which will
not be installed to a user's profile but available in build phases.

> Or is it that I should just include them in the description?

‘(package (description #;…) #;…)’ is not a good place to list and track
dependencies, because a package could include more or less in future.

Oleg.
