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

Declared system service in (gnu services tmp) in my channel, did guix
pull with the apropriate channels configuration.

System service from (gnu services tmp) can be used in my
operating-system record, but not searchable with `guix system search`.

Do anyone know reasons for such behavior?  Are there any known good
solutions for that problem?

Does it work if, instead of pulling, you run --load-path?

Cheers,

`guix system --load-path=~/work/rde search home` doesn't show the
system service I declared :/

I suspect this problem happens due to implementation:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/services.scm?h=7aea1c112647381c799ce217df1a083f72aab0ba#n200
