python-pbr-minimal is a "private" package variable, not exported, and
thus not typically available to the command-line tools.

It's the difference between (define-public python-pbr-minimal) and
(define python-pbr-minimal).

You can still pass it as a Scheme expression to some commands:

guix build --expression='(@@ (gnu packages python ) python-pbr-minimal)'

However, `guix lint` doesn't honor --expression.
