Hello Guix!
Including "openvpn-client-service-type" does not invoke and add
"openvpn" package into the system. Without "openvpn" package, openvpn
client commands cannot be used. Therefore, "openvpn-client-service-
type" is of no use, if it does not invoke and add "openvpn" package
into the system.
Regards,
RG.

This is basically bug #35417, so I'm going to merge (and close)
both of them. You'll find that this is true for all services, and
these are not bugs. Really! :-)

Strongly disagree.
What's ‘invoke’ supposed to mean here? The openvpn service *does*
invoke openvpn.
If you want (your) user to do the same, like all packages, openvpn
must be added to SYSTEM-PACKAGES or installed into their own
profile.
Kind regards,
