Tomáš Čech <[email protected]> reported on IRC that 'search-patch'
failed to find a patch he had put into DIR/gnu/packages/patches/, where
DIR was in $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH. Adding DIR to GUILE_LOAD_PATH fixed the
problem.
Also, it would be good to improve the error message when 'search-patch'
fails. This is what he reported seeing:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix/packages.scm:374:17: In procedure #<procedure 47c70c0 at
guix/packages.scm:372:9 (number patch)>:
guix/packages.scm:374:17: Throw to key `match-error' with args `("match" "no
matching pattern" #f)'.
