Hey,I'm using Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS. I must say I've never used emacs before, soI'll try to get the hang of it.Sharing my progress: I decided to package the arduino IDE, but it turned outway harder than I expected, due to its many dependencies. I ended up notdoing it, but it was a good experience because I could learn about somefunctions in Scheme - chdir, for example -, some of the phases ofbuilding a package - like unpacking, configuring and building - and I couldalso interact with the community, asking for help, via IRC, which is avery new thing for me.As for today, I will continue trying to package something. I'll probably followyour previous advice and begin with a R package. It seems easier, so hopefullyI'll succeed.Cheers,Magali.Em seg., 12 de out. de 2020 às 12:06, zimoun <zimon.toutoune@gmail.com> escreveu:Hi,

Which distribution do you use?

Nice!
Personally, I manage the Emacs packages with Guix via a manifest.scm
file. And in a separate profile. My conf [1] is far from perfect but
if you need inspiration. :-)

Cool!
Do not hesitate to ask on help-guix or #guix if you encounter issues
on your path. And feel free to send your progress, success or
failure.
All the best,
simon
