However, I would hope that development versions can easily be packaged, either from the command-line using ‘--with-source’¹, or by defining a package variant as in: (define emacs-git (package (inherit emacs) (source …))) Thanks, Ludo’. ¹ https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Package-Transformation-Options.html

Unfortunately I am out of time. And when I do find more time to contribute to free (libre) software, I intend to first file some bug reports before contributing code. Thank you for the help!

With Emacs, everything is possible :-) You'd have to do two things in your Emacs configuration: - add the notmuch elisp directory from Guix to load-path - make sure that your Guix profile is on exec-path You probably want the latter anyway, so the additional effort looks small. On the other hand, packaging Emacs 26 for Guix is a nice exercise and useful for lots of other people, so I don't want do discourage you from trying! A third option is to use the notmuch executable from Guix but installing the e-lisp part via elpa into your non-Guix Emacs. Even with somewhat different versions, this should work fine, since the notmuch command line interface is very stable. Konrad.
