That is, it picked up the version assigned to webkitgtk, not
webkitgtk-next.
My question is: shouldn't webkitgtk-next be defined with its name set to
"webkitgtk-next" instead of "webkitgtk"? Thanks.

Yes, and transliteration rules change over time too.

I don't see how gitlab would help. Gnus, for instance, provides the
formatting you mention.

I'd say it indicates that everyone has their own way of assimilating
ideas. Often times we map things in our minds by means of
simplifications, abuses of languages, imprecisions, etc.

think the bottleneck on Guix's world domination is precisely because
"scientists" generally make little effort in that regard. It's hard to
make "non-sexy" things look sexy. Go and tell a "data-scientist" about
reproducible builds. Good luck.
It's ok if things are overwhelming and hard. Things eventually click
and start to make sense.

I tried, without success, to raise awareness about the issue (perhaps in
the archived thread you mention). Sadly, no one agreed or tried to
prove me wrong.
I wrote a very simple and sane EXWM package d

Can you show the system config? I don't use XFCE for quite some time
now, but I remember that devices would automatically show on thunar.

Actually, I made a mistake again. Guix seems to force a default EXWM
config. Find a proof below.
Emacs, as of today, is started by evaluating the following

meaningless statement. The meaningful statement is "choosing Emacs as
the window manager". The user's Emacs init file dictates how EXWM is to
be initiated and operated. In short, the EXWM bin wrapper should simply
start Emacs.
The approach I describe is the "standard" and documented way of using
and "starting EXWM". See C-h P exwm RET for more info.
Thank you.

Yes, there shouldn't even be any "exwm" logic in it. The user knows
better. Let the user's init file be in charge.
I did my best to show my point of view, and I won't press on it anymore.
The decision is on the community's side.
The patch the trivial. Acceptance isn't.

ers can use their emacs init files as they wish, but that's a separate
issue.
My suggestion is simple: remove the added layer of complexity introduced
by the .exwm file; don't force a default Exwm config on the user.
What do you think?
--

nfig; and take a look at
exwm-config-example. I find this extremely annoying, since it defeats
the purpose of having a personal Exwm config. The only way to avoid
this is to create an empty .exwm file.
Again, sending a patch is trivial (I've been running my own Exwm for a
while now), but I need to convince you first :)

s, there's a variable called exwm-replace
which by default is set to 'ask---meaning that Exwm will ask if it
should replace the current window manager.

My question is: what should be done in such cases? I can think of the
following:
- Patch the Guix package
- Patch the program itself
- Nothing (apart from setting things myself)
Thank you.

Theoretically, it would be possible to write a SDDM service supporting
wayland only AFAIK. But if you'll only use sway, it makes little sense
to have a login manager indeed.
