I have added my own repository to my ~/.config/guix/channels.scm (https://gitlab.com/pkill-9/guix-packages-free), but when I run `guix build --expression='(use-modules (pkill9 utils))' it returns "no code for module (pkill9 utils)".

It does find modules from the guix repository though, e.g. `guix build --expression='(use-modules (guix packages))` returns "guix build: error: #<unspecified>: not something we can build" without a "no code for module" error.

This is a possible duplicate of 37399. Can you confirm?

Hi Gábor,

Is this the bug? https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=37399

If so, yes, it looks like it is caused by the same issue, as when I set
GUILE_LOAD_PATH to point to my repository, it finds the module.

Thanks
