Thanks for your hint. I use stig-paren.el since more than 20 years. I
guess it worked better than the built-in show-paren-mode these days.

I thought it would be great to have all my emacs packages as part of guix.

Now I tried show-paren-mode again.
Here is what I came up with as stig-paren.el replacement:
,----
| (setq show-paren-style 'expression)
| (face-spec-set 'show-paren-match-expression '((t (:inherit show-paren-match 
:background "pale green"))))
| (show-paren-mode 1)
`----

That way my .emacs has grown a bit, but I no longer need stig-paren.el ;-)

You are correct, there is no need to add stig-paren.el to guix.

By the way: thanks for applying my other patches.

Thanks
  Stefan.
