Hi Guix,
In order to update `alot`, I had to change its inputs and add a new
variable: python-notmuch2.
Thanks for your time and reviews!

gnu: notmuch: Update to 0.34.1.
gnu: Add python-notmuch2.

They are probably internally separate, but they do share superficial
parts. The Guix shortcut is only concerned about the latter, IMO.

I applied the patch set. Thanks to Tanguy for it, and to you for the
feedback!

I cannot help here, unfortunately.

No problem! I think you raise an interesting question: does inheritance
in Guix imply strong internal dependency between the project inheriting
and the one being inherited?
