Recipes are not in the store. For instance, after doing a "make install",
they are in $PREFIX/share/guile/site/2.0/.
Or maybe they are in the store after a "guix pull"?
I am only using the "make install" version for a system-wide installation,
and a git checkout for making more recent recipes available to one user.
