You have multiplied the release problem by two. guix-slim and guix-extras would both need to be versioned somehow, so that whatever packages and Guix library infrastructure guix-extras needs are in fact provided by the version of guix-slim. I strongly advise not to go down this route. See also my other email on why it is not practical; feel free to search the archives for prior discussions. -- Ricardo
