That's actually not too bad a plan. Thanks for this somewhat obvious suggestion, which I however failed to see. I'll try that. Although reproducibility is not a tenet there, they may take a patch which improves the situation. Melpa is the largest (not totally sure) repository for Emacs add-ons. And gs-elpa is the g-sorcery integration for Gentoo.

But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man---for precisely the same reasons. (Douglas Adams, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.)
