According to the description of emacs-cl-generic, it exists to provide some backward compatibility for old Emacsen(< 25) However, the Guix already package Emacs 27(even 28 on master branch). IMO, emacs-cl-generic have done its job and we no longer need it. Package emacs-finalize depends on emacs-cl-generic, it should still work after we remove this dependency. If user install this package accidentally, it may shadow the real cl-generic.el bundled with Emacs itself. -- Retrieve my public GPG key: https://meta.sr.ht/~citreu.pgp Zihao
