[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
<sdb> I think I just found a bug in guix package -u. I am unable to run
the updated package after running the upgrade.
sdb1 <at> antelope ~/guix$ echo $PATH
/var/guix/profiles/per-user/sdb1/guix-profile/bin:/var/guix/profiles/per-user/sdb1/guix-profile/sbin:/var/guix/profiles/per-user/sdb1/guix-profile/bin:/run/setuid-programs:/home/sdb1/.config/guix/current/bin:/home/sdb1/.guix-profile/bin:/home/sdb1/.guix-profile/sbin:/run/current-system/profile/bin:/run/current-system/profile/sbin
<sdb> sdb1 <at> antelope ~/guix$ guix package -u git
<sdb> The following package will be upgraded:
<sdb> git:send-email 2.17.1 → 2.18.0
/gnu/store/pvj35w3xlfvxdw3gljxxba2xjm2v7958-git-2.18.0-send-email
<sdb> but after completion:
<sdb> sdb1 <at> antelope ~$ git --version
<sdb> git version 2.17.1
<sdb> the store item referenced only has the binary "git-send-email"
<sdb> sdb1 <at> antelope ~$ ls
/gnu/store/pvj35w3xlfvxdw3gljxxba2xjm2v7958-git-2.18.0-send-email/libexec/git-core/
<sdb> git-send-email .git-send-email-real
sdb1 <at> antelope ~/guix$ which git
/home/sdb1/.guix-profile/bin/git
<sdb> sdb1 <at> antelope ~$ ls -l .guix-profile/bin/git
<sdb> lrwxrwxrwx 5 root root 62 1 jan 1970 .guix-profile/bin/git ->
/gnu/store/hkfz9sxs1yjdrlvk39r0rxcsj527p16k-git-2.17.1/bin/git
<sdb> even though guix package -l says it should be 2.18:
<sdb> Generation 5 jul 19 2018 12:14:42 (current)
<sdb> + git 2.18.0 send-email
/gnu/store/pvj35w3xlfvxdw3gljxxba2xjm2v7958-git-2.18.0-send-email
<sdb> - git 2.17.1 send-email
/gnu/store/ah77q40a2nrmgw7qnqcacyppl41xps5i-git-2.17.1-send-email
<sdb> maybe the problem is that I installed "git:send-email" but updated
"git". The bug is that guix proceedes to NOT do the right thing instead
of giving me an error
fails to do the right thing (updating the underlying git-package):
sdb1 <at> antelope ~$ guix package -r git -i git:send-email
"The following package will be upgraded:
git:send-email 2.18.0 →
2.18.0 /gnu/store/pvj35w3xlfvxdw3gljxxba2xjm2v7958-git-2.18.0-send-email
nothing to be done"
but this worked:
sdb1 <at> antelope ~$ guix package -r git -i git
The following package will be installed:
git 2.18.0 /gnu/store/w9qwlwpfmhkyj6rqk3rvkk1a89vmymqf-git-2.18.0

[Message part 3 (message/rfc822, inline)]
Closed, I no longer care if this works or not.
I now update by passing my manifest again to guix package -m and it
works flawlessly every time.
