At one point, I thought we could have, say: guix edit --clone PKG It would close the channel containing PKG, open the file that defines it, and then tell you to run “guix build -L … PKG” to test your changes. All this would be relatively easy to implement, but it has one downside: it doesn’t work for the ‘guix’ channel. Perhaps we could make it work for the ‘guix’ channel if we arrange so that “guix build -L … PKG” doesn’t end up loading all the local uncompiled guix/*.scm modules. Thoughts? Ludo’.
