I also used to run into such problems pretty often.

The only way I found to break such cycles reliably (without in the end
putting tens of packages into "update also" list) is to create a
manifest-file and always install new packages by adding them to the
manifest and then installing the manifest:

    guix package  --fallback -k -m ~/fluss-guix.manifest

To create the manifest, you can nowadays just export it:

    guix package --export-manifest > ~/fluss-guix.manifest

This works, but is hard to tell newcomers, so I’d much prefer having
install show me the list of all other packages that need to be updated
to install the package in question and being asked yes or no to that.

Best wishes,
Arne
