Hi Adolfo,

I am not a guix expert either and am relatively new to the project. I
actually asked about this topic on guix IRC, where folks there suggested
splitting it into another package. I see very little difference between
including the org-roam-extensions as a separate package output, or as a
standalone package. I feel that having it as an additional output is
more "pure", but found that many packages already use a standalone
package for extensions, and I found that doing it in this way made both
packages themselves easier to define. You can see this for yourself with
a query like this `guix package -s '.*-extensions$' | recsel -CP name`.

Hope this helps, and kind regards!
