Hi, I've been trying to export emacs org files into PDFs using Guix.
I've the PDF generation from the .tex file is failing. The issue has been discussed a few times previously, eg: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2019-02/msg00087.html But there is conflicting advice over what packages should or shouldn't be installed typically some combinaton of: texlive-base, texlive-bin, texlive-latex-base, texlive-latext-font The latest advice seems to be the only texlive-base should be necessary and installing others will cause an issue - with that in mind I attempted the below, but got a new failure. I've recreated the pdflatex step on the command line - it gives exactly the same error as the emacs error buffer contains. The org file exports without issue in Ubuntu 18.04 with the following (which may be more than I need): sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base texlive-fonts-recommended texlive-fonts-extra texlive-latex-extra emacs python3 python3-pygments Any ideas what the minimum Guix package set is (or even a carpet-bomb approach with a meta-package would be OK)? Thanks, Phil. $ guix package -p profiles/book -m profiles/book.manifest guix package: warning: Your Guix installation is 47 days old. guix package: warning: Consider running 'guix pull' followed by 'guix package -u' to get up-to-date packages and security updates.
