(Note: GNUstep is not available yet in Guix.

I assume this is on GuixSD, right?

For slim to find WindowMaker, you need to add it to the ‘packages’ field
of your ‘operating-system’ configuration. Did you try this?

HTH,

I can definitely see it here:

Toggle snippet (7 lines)
$ ls -la $(guix build windowmaker)/share/xsessions
totalo 12
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 1 1970 .
dr-xr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Jan 1 1970 ..
-r--r--r-- 2 root root 167 Jan 1 1970 windowmaker.desktop

Are you sure you added ‘windowmaker’ to the ‘packages’ field of your
‘operating-system’ declaration, and then ran ‘guix system reconfigure’
on that config?

TIA,
Ludo’.
