I am confused (as well). I thought you were running the command via the "*Guix REPL*" buffer created by emacs-guix. Perhaps not? I'll share below some thoughts as well as reasons for my curiosity. Please use your judgment in determining whether or not they are applicable to your situation. It's possible that I'm mistaken, but my understanding of emacs-guix was that it invoked a Guile REPL (even though it refers to it as a Guix REPL). This can be confirmed by evaluating "(command-line)" in the "*Guix REPL*" buffer (which on my machine, on a foreign distro, shows guile). > Are you wanting this elisp code run before/after emacs-guix.el is > loaded in Emacs? As long as emacs-guix is not modifying the GUILE_LOAD_PATH environment variable, it didn't matter when the code was evaluated. > Anyhow, if I just execute (eval-last-sexp) the code you sent, I get > this error: The error you encountered could be due to a difference in %load-path between the emacs-guix "*Guix REPL*" buffer vs %load-path when one runs "guix repl" directly on the shell. The "guix-module-union" entry may be of interest. On my machine, I have to take some extra steps to ensure that said entry exists in GUILE_LOAD_PATH (i.e., the %load-path when one loads the guile repl). -- Suhail
