[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Will using this myself to build guix, I found it doesn't return in a reasonable amount of time (`./pre-inst-env guix build -L=~/src/guix guix --with-source=~/src/libssh). Printing out the packages recursed over in this shows the same ones: my guess is that there's a cycle somewhere. If that's true, I think the only way to fix it is to have the transform lambda be stateful.

As is now, it also assumes that all inputs are packages themselves, which isn't true. That's an easy fix, but no need to send up a patch until this other issue's resolved.
