Indeed.
I agree the matching-name constraint can be annoying. The alternative
would be allow the user to (optionally?) specify the name of the package
whose source is being changed, as in:
guix build python-activepapers \
--with-source=python-activepapers=$HOME/Dev/AP
WDYT?
A bit heavyweight syntactically but maybe we have to live with it.
