Hi there, I'm experiencing an issue with the emacs-next package on my Guix foreign setup where the cursor (*not* Emacs point) is very dark. It's perfectly legible against the default Emacs theme, but nonetheless it is not respecting the settings of the rest of my system. To make things worse, I'm currently using (and enjoying!) the modus-vivendi theme. My host machine is running Arch GNU/Linux with a tiling window manager. I set my cursor style using xsetroot like so: xsetoot -xcf /usr/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/left_ptr 16 I tried installing the adwaita-icon-theme, gnome-themes-standard, and gnome-themes-extra packages in an attempt at installing the correct theme, but that didn't help. I'm not entirely sure what the issue is, but after speaking with some folks at #guix, it was suggested to me that this may in fact be a bug. The other option discussed is that Guix needs its own cursor settings, but I'm too early on in my journey with Guix (maybe 2 hours of experience using the Guix binary) to know how set that up - if that is indeed the case, some pointers on what to read would be very warmly received! I'm also not entirely sure what to provide to help debug, so I thought I'd start off by showing my channels and packages, so that my setup can be replicated? I hope that is helpful. I've also attached a screenshot showing the difference while using the "leuven" theme so there is enough contrast.
