When I try to do that:
(define udev-service-type
(service-type (name 'udev)
(extensions
(list (service-extension shepherd-root-service-type
udev-shepherd-service)))
(compose concatenate) ;concatenate the list of rules
(extend (lambda (config rules)
(match config
(($ <udev-configuration> udev initial-rules)
(udev-configuration
(udev my-eudev) ;the udev package to use
(rules initial-rules))))))))
I get the message:
hint: Did you forget `(use-modules (gnu services base))'?
Even I have the use-module of that in there:
(use-modules (nongnu packages linux)
(nongnu system linux-initrd)
(gnu services base)
(gnu system linux-initrd)
(gnu services shepherd)
(eudev)
(gnu))
Another annoying thing is that I have to use the -I parameter from guix:
guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm -L guix-packages/
I set that to .bashrc:
export GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH="~/guix-packages"
Why do I have to use the -L parameter when I already have defined that
path?
Any ideas?
