guix/guix/inferior.scm
Ludovic Courtès 7bd5f72918
inferior: 'cached-channel-instance' no longer calls 'show-what-to-build'.
This allows the user of 'cached-channel-instance' to install the build
handler of its choice.  In particular, it allows "guix time-machine" to
install a build notifier with the right options instead of using the
defaults that 'cached-channel-instance' would pass to
'show-what-to-build*'.

* guix/inferior.scm (cached-channel-instance): Remove call to
'show-what-to-build*'.
(inferior-for-channels): Wrap body in 'with-build-handler'.
* guix/scripts/time-machine.scm (guix-time-machine): Use
'with-build-handler'.
