Indeed! Thanks for the answer.

Well, 'guix install emacs' installs more than emacs as well:
graphviz, ghostscript, python, fftw, cups, ...
There are different kinds of dependencies between packages:
- Package A contains binaries that are linked to shared libraries
installed by package B.
- Package A contains binaries that invoke binaries installed by
package C.
- Package A produces output or file formats that can only be viewed
through package D.
For me, any of these dependencies would be a reason, when installing A,
to install B, C, D as well.
