[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello :)

I've run into a strange issue where `guix home reconfigure` does not install the packages listed in the (home-environment(packages(append))) block.

It isn't throwing any errors except for a warning:
WARNING: Use of `load' in declarative module (#{ g56}#). Add #:declarative? #f to your define-module invocation. unbound-variable(#f "Unbound variable: ~S" (make-system-contructor) #f)

I am not using define-module as far as I know.
Guix Version: d87c292d7d4ec7349b22278bca45c9a7ca03ffe4
OS: GuixSD

Here is my guix home file:
https://paste.debian.net/plain/1225704

It is invoked with 'guix home reconfigure'.

Thank you for your time
- Ry (opalvaults)

I've upped the times on the pastes in case they expire. I've also included the output from guix home reconfigure.

Output of guix home reconfigure
https://paste.debian.net/plain/1225711

guix-home.scm file
https://paste.debian.net/plain/1225712

Some added notes:
- This is on a fresh install of Guix.
- It seems to symlink just fine.

I tested by adding another package to the file to get output. It installs the package but does not add the binary to my path:
https://paste.debian.net/plain/1225715

doing a find on waybar:
https://paste.debian.net/plain/1225717

So it's installing all of these packages and creating the derivation fine but they are not installing locally?

Most of the paste.debian.net links are already unavailable.

Could you paste the config file and command output in-line?

Thanks in advance,
Ludo’.
