Sorry for top posting...

I think that I have tried that in my config, and I could not get it to work.
I will try again and get back to you, and update the guix documentation
accordingly.

Will do.

I will resubmit this with the goal of merging directly into debbugs.el.
And I am off tomorrow, so I should have some time to do so!
