Hi Guix,

When trying to run guix package --show with packages from the
(gnu packages ssh) module, such as openssh, guile-ssh, and libssh, I get 
the following stack trace:

$ guix package --show=openssh
Backtrace:

To me, the error looks like a missing module import or simmilar, but I 
can't spot it. Perhaps it is something else.

Best,
Jack

As I know it seems like need to run `guix pull` to update your scheme files.
I usually run updates for root and non-root users with this line:
`guix pull && guix package -u`

Also after update by root you may need to run `guix system reconfigure config.scm` with you config.scm file (that you need to have). This will update your guix-daemon.

Hope it helps!

After guix pulling, I still see the problem with the latest Guix. My guix 
describe information:

I think (gnu packages curl) is not correct because it provides
libssh2-1.8.0, which inherits from a package that is in (gnu packages
ssh).

The definition of libssh2-1.8.0 should probably be moved to (gnu
packages ssh).

Maybe. Here's an interesting twist: I thought I would try produce a patch 
to move that definition. From a up-to-date checkout (commit 
177bc62d63e89a1ce2f255879bca1fdc5f3769f1), I ran:

   guix environment guix
   ./bootstrap
   ./configure --localstatedir=/var
   make
   ./pre-inst-env guix package --show=openssh

And there is no error even though the definition had not been moved.

However, if I guix pull to the same commit, the problem persists.

Fixed in 71b4974a40347bdc651c3a1f923780733d96ded7.

The lesson is: when inheriting from a package, do it in the module where
it’s defined.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
