Indeed, that’s on purpose; the rationale is that it’s more useful to see the location of the original package (the Python 3 variant) than always this one line in gnu/build-system/python.scm. > Another related issue for package-with-python2 packages: > >> (package-definition-location-code $1) > $4 = #f Yes, I see it’s annoying, but that’s expected. > I was expecting to use this to get rid of all leaf Python 2 packages, > but it seems that may not work (as easily as I'd hoped). You were willing to have a script that would automatically delete the relevant lines, right? It’s kinda silly but I think the script will have to estimate the definition location by looking for “(define-public python2-…”. HTH, Ludo’.
