Hi,

How about this alternative route: support multiple ‘--entry-point’
arguments.  The first one is passed to the backend as #:entry-point (as
is currently the case) and extra instances are passed as a list as
#:entry-point-arguments.

That way one could do:

  guix pack -f docker guile \
    --entry-point=bin/guile --entry-point=--version

Or, perhaps even better, introduce a new ‘--entry-point-argument’ (or
‘-A’) option.

The advantage compared to ‘--docker-entry-point’ is that it could be
supported by all the backends.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
