 The build system can't (yet) deduce the egg's name automatically, so just like
 with @code{go-build-system} and its @code{#:import-path}, you should define

 Egg dependencies must be defined in @code{propagated-inputs}, not @code{inputs}
-because Chicken doesn't embed absolute references in compiled eggs.
-Test dependecies should go to @code{native-inputs}, as usual.
