+@code{python-build-system}:
+
+@example
+guix install --with-input=python=python2 python-itsdangerous
+@end example
+
+Another example is grafting a different version of the GNU C
+Library (@code{glibc} is an implicit input of almost all the packages and is
+``deep down'' in the dependency graph):

+@example
+guix build --with-graft=glibc=glibc@@2.31 hello

+Run @command{info \"(guix) Package Transformation Options\"} for more
