It produces two output directories: /gnu/store/40g0xqcikbz6ya7h2gbyj8gck043ajl8-lapack-3.5.0-lapacke /gnu/store/lqnm7fmpz3si0rgyqz1pzax4ipa25xlx-lapack-3.5.0 The closure of the lapacke output is larger: $ guix size /gnu/store/40g0xqcikbz6ya7h2gbyj8gck043ajl8-lapack-3.5.0-lapacke store item total self /gnu/store/40g0xqcikbz6ya7h2gbyj8gck043ajl8-lapack-3.5.0-lapacke 97.2 2.9 3.0% /gnu/store/lqnm7fmpz3si0rgyqz1pzax4ipa25xlx-lapack-3.5.0 71.4 6.4 6.6% /gnu/store/gaximh48qbqf4712bw224ghq919hqp64-gfortran-4.9.3-lib 64.9 27.1 27.9% /gnu/store/v39bh3ln3ncnzhyw0kd12d46kww9747v-gcc-4.9.3-lib 60.7 22.9 23.5% /gnu/store/8m00x5x8ykmar27s9248cmhnkdb2n54a-glibc-2.22 37.9 36.5 37.5% /gnu/store/5y72ql4zbnbd50lf88k91k0y766kq75x-bash-static-4.3.42 1.4 1.4 1.4% total: 97.2 MiB But the plain output is unchanged: $ guix size /gnu/store/lqnm7fmpz3si0rgyqz1pzax4ipa25xlx-lapack-3.5.0 store item total self /gnu/store/lqnm7fmpz3si0rgyqz1pzax4ipa25xlx-lapack-3.5.0 71.4 6.4 9.0% /gnu/store/gaximh48qbqf4712bw224ghq919hqp64-gfortran-4.9.3-lib 64.9 27.1 38.0% /gnu/store/8m00x5x8ykmar27s9248cmhnkdb2n54a-glibc-2.22 37.9 36.5 51.1% /gnu/store/5y72ql4zbnbd50lf88k91k0y766kq75x-bash-static-4.3.42 1.4 1.4 2.0% total: 71.4 MiB I have yet to test that this works as expected with the package I’m working on. ~~ Ricardo
