The spirit of this is correct, but the implementation isn't quite
right. The gnome package has no inputs:
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use (gnu packages gnome)
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use (guix packages)
scheme@(guile-user)> (package-inputs gnome)
$1 = ()
Instead, it has many propagated inputs. So, you should probably write:
(define-public gnome-custom
(package (inherit gnome)
(name "gnome-custom")
(propagated-inputs (alist-delete
"nautilus"
(package-propagated-inputs gnome)))))
This will work as you expect. It's not incorrect to use alist-delete
here, but FYI you can also use matching to do this as follows:
(define-public gnome-custom
(package (inherit gnome)
(name "gnome-custom")
(propagated-inputs (remove
(match-lambda
;; Ignore the second value.
((name _)
(string=? name "nautilus")))
(package-propagated-inputs gnome)))))
Whether or not you like that better probably depends on whether or not
you view the value returned by (package-propagated-inputs gnome) as an
alist or a list of 2-element lists.

It looks like you're using "config =>" from the modify-services syntax
without actually using modify-services. Try this instead:
(services (cons* (service gnome-desktop-service-type
(gnome-desktop-configuration
(inherit config)
(gnome-package gnome-custom)))
%desktop-services))
This should create and add a gnome-desktop-service-type service instance
with the configuration you've specified.
Hope that helps!
