As I explained, configuring third-party packages in dir-locals does not
look right to me.  It may lead to problems if you remember:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-05/msg00231.html

And in general, I don't like when developers make default settings that
are hard to "fix".  What if I don't want to use 'guix-devel-mode' at
all?  Why do you force me to use it?

That's why I disabled all these dir-locals in my emacs config:
developers often put to ".dir-locals.el" their personal settings.  I
just can't stand it.
