Cool, thanks a lot.

@lafrenierejm, I understand you are responsible for adding this to Guix, right? Pardon my ignorance, but how is this maintained? Or more specific, what if a new version of this package is released, how would that be reflected in Guix?

Yes, I authored the Guix package.

Pardon my ignorance, but how is this maintained? Or more specific, what if a new version of this package is released, how would that be reflected in Guix?

There's no automated update of the Guix package. I intend to continue using both rg.el and Guix for the foreseeable future, though, so whenever I notice a new release here I'll plan to update the Guix package. That being said, neither the community around Guix nor the technology itself require a single, specified maintainer for any given package; anyone may submit a patch to update the Guix package.

LMK if that answers your questions.

Thanks, yes that's it. Then I know that it would be possbile for me to update the package if needed, for instance if you abandon it.
