I do not know what rofi is but re-sourcing is faster to check is the
new change works than any other. :-)

Nice! Thank you for your contribution.
As you can seen, add Emacs packages is in general fun and rewarding. :-)
Do not hesitate to report your difficulties on mailing lists help-guix
or guix-devel or IRC #guix.

Yes, "guix pack" is an an option if your work machine run the Linux
kernel. Otherwise, it should be a bazooka to kill a tiny fly. :-)
However, the main advantage to use for producing your Emacs setup is
that it is harder to break it and when it did, you can (almost) always
roll-back. For example, I track (git) the channel that I used: guix
describe -f channels > foo.scm && git commit -a and I use manifests
files tracked too. Therefore, I can easily use the same setup on
another machine running Guix or restore previous setup without keeping
all the generations in the store. Anyway. :-)

Is it fixed now for you?
All the best,
