Subject: bug#22693: `guix refresh -u` updates other packages with same version
Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2016 04:27:24 -0500

I've noticed that `guix refresh -u` will update extraneous packages if
they happen to have the same version and be in the same module.

For example, from commit d694230ab, you can reproduce the bug:

$ ./pre-inst-env guix environment guix -- ./pre-inst-env guix refresh -u python-pytest
$ git diff
