2023-03-13packages: 'package-input-rewriting/spec' ignores hidden packages.Ludovic Courtès
The primary motivation is to support things like: guix build guix --with-input=guile=guile-next without triggering a rebuild of (@@ (gnu packages commencement) guile-final) and similar things. It is also consistent with package name resolution on the command line: a package that cannot be named cannot be replaced. * guix/packages.scm (package-input-rewriting/spec)[rewrite]: When P is hidden, return it as-is. * tests/packages.scm ("package-input-rewriting/spec, hidden package"): New test. * doc/guix.texi (Defining Package Variants): Update. (Package Transformation Options): Update '--with-input' example.
