I am using the built-in flymake only. Have installed only two
extensions:

flymake-rust
flymake-lua

But I don't think this is causing any issue in init.el. For server
setup, I have only this in my init.el:

;; start server for emacsclient support
(require 'server)			; I don't know why this is
					; required after
					; package-initialize
(unless (server-running-p) (server-start))
