Hello!

I suggest not using propagated-inputs because they are likely to cause
conflicts in profiles when used. I suggest intead creating wrapper
scripts that append to the PATH variable.

Examples of such wrapper scripts can be found:

- 
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=373e5fc96724fd38bb1263e4af90932ea36f596b
(PYTHONPATH more so)
- 
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=00c1793ce8e2210e48b18422ea3e76da10541874
(Append xdg-utils to PATH)

Let me know if there's any questions about creating such wrappers.

Léo
