I like it.  :-)

Hi

Is this a bug?

sdb <at> antelope ~/src/guix$ guix environment guix -- ad-hoc libgit2 texinfo
guix environment: error: execlp: No such file or directory

I meant to type: 
sdb <at> antelope ~/src/guix$ guix environment guix --ad-hoc libgit2 texinfo

I would have liked an error saying "error: package ad-hoc not found -
cannot add it to the environment"
