Hi Efraim,

Autoloads.el is used to lazily load an Elisp package. It causes the main commands to be available to Emacs user before the whole package is loaded.

In Guix System, if a package doesn't have autoloads it won't be automatically loaded into Emacs. One will need to add '(require 'package) to '.emacs'.

In case of my package:
(require 'shroud)

without this Emacs wouldn't load Shroud.
