Hi,
It would be great if `guix search TERMS` could show for each record
whether the package is installed and which versions are installed.
I regularly search for a library and then check with guix package -I
whether I already have it, and that’s quite inconvenient.
Best wishes,
Arne

I agree.
Say if it is already in '/gnu/store' is often helpful.
And "guix search" should even provide in which profile it is already installed
(maybe even in which generation of which profile it is already)

In the meantime, something along these lines should do the trick...
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
for profile in $(guix package --list-profiles)
do
echo $profile
guix package -p $profile -I | grep <pkg>
done
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and it is not convenient, I agree. :-)
All the best,
simon

Hi,
FYI, I just filed bug#70153, which is related, about the "guix show" /
"guix package --show" command.
