If my attempt is recommended against then how else should I enable Guix on Emacs and interactive Bash shells while preventing it from disrupting the foreign distro (e.g. programs spawned by GNOME)? Or is this feared disruption a non-issue in practice and I’m creating unnecessary complication?The suggestion is to source ~/.guix-profile/etc/profile from ~/.bash_profile (or similar).
That's what I am using in exactly the same setup (Guix on Ubuntu 16.04LTS) and it works fine. Sourcing ~/.guix-profile/etc/profile from $HOME/.profile, on the other hand, prevents logins to GNOME or Unity sessions.
