For more information about these matters, see the file named COPYING. When I launch emacs from the command line, I get the following message: split-string: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil As a result, when I try `EDITOR=emacs guix edit hello` it doesn't work. I can confirm this is not a problem with guix edit, because when EDITOR=vim it opens the package in vim. (Joke about guix turning to the dark side goes here.) Since I do not know if it is a problem with guix or emacs, I'm starting with guix.
