Hi Gottfried,
The project (≈package) named 'musescore' distributes a binary (≈command) named
'mscore':
~ λ ls $(guix build musescore)/bin
mscore
Don't ask me why they didn't call it 'musescore', but in general package names
do not map 1:1 to binary names. That's why peeking in the /{s,}bin directories
is helpful.
An obvious example is 'coreutils', which provides most of the commands you use
daily, but none named 'coreutils'.
Kind regards,
T G-R
