Hi

I use emacs in a terminal to hack on packages.
I start an emacs, press C-z to pause it after trying something
in bash I then build the package from the source tree
press fg to return to emacs
and so forth.

Typing guix environment will enter a new environment where apparently my 
paused emacs is not available.

Is this a bug?
Probably not.

Should we make guix environment warn/refuse to create the env. if 
stopped jobs exist?

Yes, I think so.

What do you think?

This is not a bug, as far as I can tell. Especially with the recent
proposed and adopted changes to how jobs function in `guix environment`
you might have better luck with this issue now.

I am closing this in the mean time, but feel free to open a /new/ bug
report documenting the expected and true behaviors if you wish.
