So far we’ve resisted that, in part because that’s a choice for upstream to make, not us (there have been several discussions on that topic, such as <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-01/msg00197.html>.) In practice most software build systems will look for both ‘cc’ and ‘gcc’. For those who don’t, it’s usually easy to specify an alternate compiler name, for instance via ‘make’ flags (there are several examples of that in the packages.) If that’s fine with you, I’ll close this bug. Thanks, Ludo’.
