hi it helped. after "guix environment emacs" configuration was ok. but there 
some additional questions i have:
1) where "guix environment emacs" look for env description?
2) i tried to recreate env using inputs described in gnu/packages/emacs.scm in 
emacs package but got error described in the first message. is there way for 
manual recreating environment that i didn't notice?
2) what is better way to build sources as they are (from tar, just for testing, 
not for packaging)?
