Hi guix=2E While working on my guix-home-manager experiment, I tried to cre=
ate a "guix home" subcommand in my channel, by creating the (guix scripts h=
ome) module=2E

However, after pulling the right branch, with this in my channels=2Escm:

(channel
  (name 'home)
  (url "https://framagit=2Eorg/tyreunom/guix-home-manager=2Egit")
  (branch "subcommand"))

I get "guix: home: command not found"=2E

Guix describes agrees that I have installed the right branch, and from gui=
x repl, I can run:

,m (guix ui)
(run-guix-command 'home)

And it prints the test message=2E

From=20stracing 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 i=
nside "current"=2E So either guix-module-union should be extended to contai=
n channel code, or the load path modified to load a bigger union or multipl=
e directories=2E

For now, setting GUILE_LOAD_PATH to load from "current" works and I can ru=
n guix home=2E I think it should work by default though=2E
