(Note that it’s a warning, not an error.)

I cannot reproduce this with a ‘guix’ coming from ‘guix pull’:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix system search . > /dev/null
$ echo $?
0
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Indeed, the problem came from the makefiles, and is fixed in commit
a7ad4505b7a09f32e2727a333e11716739efb713.

Thanks!

Ludo’.

Hi,

during the use of the openSUSE package of Guix I found a little "bug".
Running "guix system search" results in:

guix system: warning: failed to load '(gnu system install)':
no code for module (gnu installer)

So I packaged guile-newt and configured the guix package with
"--enable-installer". Now this problem is gone :)

I just wonder if we should document this, so that it's clear
"--enable-installer" is not only needed for the installer. Or maybe
there is a way to remove the dependency for "guix system search" on (gnu
installer).

~Jonathan
