And it workd. I'm not exactly sure what the issue was, but here is what I did, in case it helps anyone in the future: Added ~libtool~ and ~cmake~ to =emacs.scm= and installed those. After that and running: #+begin_src sh GUIX_PROFILE="/home/ck/.guix-extra-profiles/emacs/emacs" . "$GUIX_PROFILE/etc/profile" #+end_src the compilation worked. But the module could not be loaded: #+begin_src sh byte-code: Module could not be opened: "/home/ck/.emacs.d/straight/build/vterm/vterm-module.so", "libvterm.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" #+end_src Then changed (as stated in the docs) #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package vterm) #+end_src to #+begin_src emacs-lisp (use-package vterm :load-path "/home/ck/.guix-extra-profiles/emacs/emacs/lib") #+end_src vterm now works again.
