Usually the best build system is the one that upstream developers use.
If several equivalent build systems can be used, it depends what works
best or what is easier in Guix...

You can find the dependents of a package with:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
./pre-inst-env guix refresh -l <package-name>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So you can rebuild all the dependents of a package with something like:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
./pre-inst-env guix build $(./pre-inst-env guix refresh -l <package-name> | cut -d ':' -f 2)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


Patch pushed as 66188398c446bdf9ce044fa539536e9b54c28c60 with a complete
commit message.
Thanks.
