Thanks for the point regarding geiser. This is now my ~/.emacs (add-to-list 'load-path "/gnu/store/ysh4fvnxr0p8xrphcikivpafgvf6g18m-guix-0.8/share/emacs/site-lisp/") (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.guix-profile/share/emacs/site-lisp") (require 'geiser-install) (require 'guix-init) Reason for the /gnu/store path is, that guix.el is a part of guix and I did not found it in any profile. I've added my profile path, where the geiser is (as it is installed by this user), but the /run/current-system has no share/emacs at all. I do not know why. While I got further, it is still somewhat confused as invoking guix-all-available-packages results in error in process sentinel: Text is read-only No prompt found! > -- > Alex Adam Pribyl
