Hi!
I'm resurrecting this since I got bitten by this today.
I'm currently writing a blog article on profiles and manifest, and I
realized that Emacs is the only program so far that does not behave
consistently with the rest of Guix.
When I source the etc/profile where I've installed my Emacs packages,
I'd expect the appropriate environment variables to be set so that
`guix-emacs-autoload-packages' knows where to load the packages from.
I believe the solution to be simple:
1. Make Emacs packages set XDG_DATA_DIRS in etc/profile
2. guix-emacs.el: Remove guix-user-profile
3. guix-emacs.el: Set profiles to all the paths in XDG_DATA_DIRS in the
guix-emacs-autoload-packages function.
Thoughts?
