Hi Peng Mei Yu,
I agree with Ludo' that fixing this at the package level is more
‘appropriate’ than in the service.

Obvious is different things to different people, but here's my
go-to approach. Override the relevant variables during the
install phase without changing any run-time settings:
#+begin_example
diff --git a/gnu/packages/package-management.scm
b/gnu/packages/package-management.scm
index c1e6657dff..fefa17a162 100644

(native-inputs `(("pkg-config" ,pkg-config)))
(inputs `(("boost" ,boost)
("brotli" ,brotli)
#+end_example
It installs correctly. I didn't test the service.
Kind regards,
T G-R
