Hi Jeffrey,

I’m sorry to hear it caused you so much trouble and actually led you to
install the “wrong” package.

> With the aliases in place, a command like 'guix install gcc' works as expected.

I’ve now added such an alias:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=f17e1802ec325e5cc86d4908f05ac69aafdf39da

I’ll install ‘gcc-toolchain’, which is explained here:

  https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Application-Setup.html#The-GCC-toolchain

Thanks,
Ludo’.
