Hi!
I was under the impression that 'guix build [P]' followed by
'guix install /gnu/store/[...]' would produce equivalent results to
'guix install [P]' -- but evidently that's not generally the case? With
up-to-date Guix:
$ guix build gcc-toolchain@4.8.5
[...]
/gnu/store/zq67w51hf6vpk3s2nriwnl7658biq9dz-gcc-toolchain-4.8.5-debug
/gnu/store/lahbqdidl3ynasd0vzxz2i0dmgh0v16i-gcc-toolchain-4.8.5
/gnu/store/82i6qfdqspg43rkphw0hhafny76z5bbr-gcc-toolchain-4.8.5-static
$ guix install -p bi
/gnu/store/lahbqdidl3ynasd0vzxz2i0dmgh0v16i-gcc-toolchain-4.8.5
[...]
..., where '/gnu/store/[...]-gcc-toolchain-4.8.5' is the main ("out")
output, which should -- per my understanding -- correspond to directly
'guix install'ing:
$ guix install -p i gcc-toolchain@4.8.5
[...]
But now compare the two installations:

This means that the 'bi' installation isn't usable.
Where is the error in (very likely) my thinking?
How do I, by the way, programmatically get from the 'guix build' list of
(here: three) outputs to the main ("out") output? Via
'/gnu/store/*-gcc-toolchain-4.8.5.drv' (as produced by
'guix build --derivations [...]'), I suppose, but what's the standard
way? Or, is there even a way to instruct 'guix build' to only produce
the main ("out") output, for example?
All this came up in context of wanting to install '--system=i686-linux'
packages on '--system=x86_64-linux', and I'm not able to just
'guix install --system=i686-linux gcc-toolchain@4.8.5' there.
(Is there a fundamental reason for not allowing that, or just not yet
implemented?)
Grüße
Thomas
