I'm trying to experiment with my own channel packages.
Here is my current channel code:
https://github.com/anthonyquizon/guix-channel
The docs in https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Channels.html mentions
that if I have packages in a subdirectory, I need to specify its location
in .guix-channel.
However, doing this, 'guix pull' does not work and giving me an error:
*|builder for
`/gnu/store/04xj2y92320w5jd2rs3kqcdd4wxg0w78-anthonyquizon-packages.drv'
failed to produce output path
`/gnu/store/ky6097zcynxvwdkmgk5vw7p2qrqwyby8-anthonyquizon-packages'
build of
/gnu/store/04xj2y92320w5jd2rs3kqcdd4wxg0w78-anthonyquizon-packages.drv
failed *
(I've renamed .guix-channel to _guix-channel for now)
I tried to add a package in the root folder and was not able to search or
install it via "guix search hello-foo" and "guix install hello-foo" after a
"guix pull".
The package builds fine with "guix build -L . anthony-hello".
Is there something I'm missing?

In your case you don't need a .guix-channel because your package modules are named correctly:
In a/b/c.scm is module (a b c), no need for a .guix-channel
If in a/b/c.scm is module (b c), you'll need to specify a as thc subdirectory where modules are located. Does it make sense?

Ah good to know thanks.
RE: "guix search hello-foo" and "guix install hello-foo" not working for
me, this turned out to be an issue with my PATH variable. So its working
now.
Thanks,
Anthony
