I'm working on packaging rav1e for Guix again and so I'm using sort2.scm on the big 'gnu/packages/crates-io.scm' module. One problem I noticed with sort2.scm is that inherited packages need to be after the package they inherit from, but this means they will not be alphanumerically sorted. For example, sort2.scm will put rust-bytes-0.3 before rust-bytes-0.4, but then the build fails, because the former inherits from the latter but can no longer find it.
