Hello zimoun,

> $ guix package -i busybox diffutils -p /tmp/foo
> $ ls -l /tmp/foo/bin
> [..]
>  df -> /gnu/store/…-busybox-1.31.1/bin/df
>  diff -> /gnu/store/…-diffutils-3.7/bin/diff
>  diff3 -> /gnu/store/…-diffutils-3.7/bin/diff3
>  dirname -> /gnu/store/…-busybox-1.31.1/bin/dirname
> [..]

The order of what appears in "bin" depends on both the name of the
binaries provided by both packages and also how the "ls" command decides
to sort its output. I'm not sure that much can be done here.

Thanks,

Mathieu
