Hi,

At first sight I believe the fix should be in ‘package->code’, not in
(guix modules).

(guix modules) is quite sensitive so in general we should refrain from
changing the semantics of its procedures.  In this case,
‘file-name->module-name’ expects a file name relative to a search path
entry.

HTH,
Ludo’.
