[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Importing hackage packages recursively fails with similar error to this:

```
$ guix import hackage linear-generics --recursive

```

I tried to find out what passes the `upstream-input` to
`hackage-name->package-name`, but only found out with `pk` that it seems
to only happen with the recursed dependencies and not with the root
package. I also tried to make `hackage-name->package-name` accept
`upstream-input` records but that a new error, so I assume the issue is
that something in the importer is returning `upstream-input` records
when it should return package names.

I could try to debug this further but I don't feel like I know enough
about debugging with guile nor about debugging scheme.

Hi,

> $ guix import hackage linear-generics --recursive

have you ever figured out what caused this? I cannot reproduce it
currently – probably because ghc-th-abstraction is part of Guix already
and no recursion actually happens.

Yes, I fixed it in https://issues.guix.gnu.org/67564 so this issue can
now be closed.
