Amin,

* gnu/packages/python-xyz.scm (python-gandi.cli): New variable.

Thanks! This package is already in Guix as ‘gandi.cli’ — we avoid the ‘python-’ prefix for stand-alone programmes since being written in Python (or any other language) is irrelevant.

+    (propagated-inputs
+     `(("git" ,git)
+       ("openssh" ,openssh)
+       ("openssl" ,openssl)
+       ("python-click" ,python-click)
+       ("python-ipy" ,python-ipy)
+       ("python-pyyaml" ,python-pyyaml)
+       ("python-requests" ,python-requests)
+       ("python-setuptools" ,python-setuptools)))

Propagation should be avoided when possible, although it's (sadly) more common in Python packages than elsewhere.

However, propagating inputs like git, openssh, openssl, python-setuptools… is definitely wrong. Was this deliberate? Which problem were you trying to solve? Take a look at gandi.cli's ‘embed-store-file-names’ for a different approach that avoids propagation altogether.

I'm closing this bug, but please let me know if the existing gandi.cli is missing features. I added it but haven't used it in a while.

Kind regards,

T G-R
