It's not a good idea only in my opinion :-) I personally don't like when someone decides what settings I should use so much, that I disable all these dir-locals stuff completely (using 'enable-dir-local-variables' variable). But if I understood this situation correctly, Pierre suggested to: - add a function to the Guix ".dir-locals.el" (does dir-locals support functions at all?) - the function to set up a third-party package (Emacs-Guix)! Why Guix should do it? Both these points doesn't look right to me. -- Alex
