Using your proposal, how do you deal with

    guix install rust rust-foobar

?  Do you expect that rust-foobar is built using the latest Rust or the
internal Rust?

Well, from my point of view, what you would like is that the symbol
’rust-1.65’ would be named “rust-next”.  It is the current way for
several versions; see emacs vs emacs-next.

See https://issues.guix.gnu.org/62643

I propose to close this report once #62643 is merged.

Cheers,
simon
