I actually use doom emacs on guix system. I have not yet migrated to
guix home just yet. I had an issue with doom emacs NOT having debbugs
installed. This worked for me:
$ guix install emacs-debbugs
Then I opened up: .doom.d/config.el
(require 'debbugs-autoloads)
$ doom sync
Now I can use doom emacs and debbugs!
Maybe you can add other emacs packages to doom that way.

This is probably heresy...but I use an ~/.authinfo file. It's a plain
text file. I have never been able to figure out how to use a
~/.authinfo.gpg. Or rather I did figure out how to use it...Then lost
my gpg key, and then lost all of my passwords. So now I have an
.authinfo file, and I have a private git repo of my /home/joshua of
various files. It's probably a poor way of doing it, but it's how I do it.
Hope that helps,
