Subject: [bug#40629] [PATCH v2 8/9] import/utils: alist->package: Ignore known inputs.

From: Ricardo Wurmus <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2020 00:59:02 +0200

* guix/import/utils.scm (alist->package): Accept optional list of known
inputs, which are excluded from the specification lookup.
* guix/import/print.scm (package->code)[package-lists->code]: Handle inputs
which are just symbols.
