Subject: bug#37399: Guix subcommands from channels not found
Date: Fri, 13 Sep 2019 13:57:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1E9B8AE4-D8C0-46F7-B1C1-1C0993FF59DA@lepiller.eu> (raw)
Hi guix. While working on my guix-home-manager experiment, I tried to create a "guix home" subcommand in my channel, by creating the (guix scripts home) module.
However, after pulling the right branch, with this in my channels.scm:
(channel
(name 'home)
(url "https://framagit.org/tyreunom/guix-home-manager.git")
(branch "subcommand"))
I get "guix: home: command not found".
Guix describes agrees that I have installed the right branch, and from guix repl, I can run:
,m (guix ui)
(run-guix-command 'home)
And it prints the test message.
From stracing the guix home invocation, I found out that guix was looking for the module only inside guix-module-union and my guix profile, but not inside "current". So either guix-module-union should be extended to contain channel code, or the load path modified to load a bigger union or multiple directories.
For now, setting GUILE_LOAD_PATH to load from "current" works and I can run guix home. I think it should work by default though.
