Hi, This patch #38643 submission had fallen into the cracks http://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/38643 What is the next action? Is it worth to include it despite the fact that: > Do I get it right that Spacemacs will try to fetch the > packages it needs via pkg.el (ELPA)? > > Longer-term, it would be nice if it could fetch packages > through Guix, using Emacs-Guix. Are you familiar with this > part of Spacemacs? I agree that this should be the long-term plan, though I would like to avoid the overhead of maintaining each individual ELPA package separately. I have not `guix import`ed an ELPA package before, but I know that for some other imports manual fixup is needed. Do you know if this is the case for ELPA? If so, I would prefer to work on a way to fix that than to manually maintain dozens of packages. or do we drop it? Cheers, simon
