chromaprint: fpcalc missing

The chromaprint commandline tool "fpcalc" to compute fingerprints is missing. I believe passing the CMAKE argument -DBUILD_TOOLS=ON would be enough. I guess it would be a nice fit for a separate output. -- Pierre Neidhardt signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Pros and cons of Emacs package management through Guix instead of package.el

I am thinking of using Guix to manage all my Emacs packages. I can think of several benefits: - Guix provides (possibly) more stable versions. - Guix can update all packages without hanging Emacs. - Guix can update all packages from the commandline, i.e. it can be scripted. - Guix can rollbac
