Thanks, CBaines’ patch tracker made it very easy to get the code.

So I run "./pre-inst-env guix shell julia". But apparently julia wasn’t
rebuilt as I did that. So when I then run "./pre-inst-env julia" I am
probabilly using the unpatched julia version, right ?
If I install say "julia-docstringextensions" with guix and then in julia
add it with Pkg it still gets installed the usual way.
How can I use the julia package as defined in the patch ?

Kind Regards,
