Hi,
I would like to upgrade guile-json in my local store.
I start with
$guix pull
$guix package -u (didn't do anything)

Builds occur in a chrooted environment, so only the packages added in
the package definition are there. Try adding
(inputs
`(("guile" ,guile)))
to the package definition after the build-system line. and (gnu packages
guile) to the top with the other use-modules.
My guile-json now looks like:
(use-modules (guix packages)
(guix download)
(guix build-system gnu)
(guix licenses)
(gnu packages guile) )
(package
(name "guile-json")
(version "4.3.2")
(source (origin
(method url-fetch)
(uri (string-append
"https://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/guile-json/guile-json-";
version ".tar.gz"))
(sha256
(base32
"0255c7f053z4p9mqzhpxwbfx3y47j9nfvlgnm8xasdclyzmjl9y2"))))
(build-system gnu-build-system)
(inputs
`(("guile" ,guile)))
(synopsis "Hello, Guix world: An example custom Guix package")
(description
"GNU Hello prints the message \"Hello, world!\" and then exits. It
serves as an example of standard GNU coding practices. As such, it supports
command-line arguments, multiple languages, and so on.")
(home-page "https://www.gnu.org/software/hello/";)
(license gpl3+))
The results:
mbc@xps:~$ guix package
--install-from-file=./Downloads/guile-json/guile-json.scm
guix package: warning: Consider running 'guix pull' followed by
'guix package -u' to get up-to-date packages and security updates.
The following package will be upgraded:
guile-json 3.2.0 → 4.3.2
Backtrace:

In guix/ui.scm:

guix/ui.scm:1936:12: In procedure run-guix-command:

Why doesn't the "Defining Packages" help
(https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Defining-Packages.html)
mention guile as an input?
Are guile-2.0-dev packages needed in the Guix Store?
From the error:
Backtrace:
1 (primitive-load "/usr/local/bin/guix")
"/usr/local/bin/guix", not ~/.config/guix/current/bin/guix as
mentioned by Julien Lepiller. Is this my problem?
Thanks
