In theory, one could want to have Emacs both in ‘native-inputs’ (to
build .elc files, for instance) and in ‘inputs’ (for instance because
the program embeds a reference to the ‘emacs’ program.)

So I’m rather reluctant about this approach.

Did you find packages where Emacs wrongfully appears twice in the
inputs?  It might be best to fix those packages instead.

WDYT?

Thanks,
