Assuming “Deno“ (a modern runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript written in Rust) is packaged by Guix, the build system for packaging Quarto would not clear to me. > Because this download and compilation of Deno occur during > ./configure.sh running, guix cannot patch the #!/bin/bash path, so > ./configure failed.

Hum, maybe package deno. ;-) Well, guix import crate deno -r is a starting point. But Deno, neither Quarto, are easy to package for Guix. Cheers, simon
