Hi Arnaud, I have a very superficial understanding of Texinfo, but I thought it relied on 'directory' files and not just collections of raw .info files. In Guix, these are generated by a profile hook.
From <https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/html_node/Other-Info-Directories.html>: > The standalone Info reader merges any files named dir in any directory listed > in the INFOPATH variable into a single menu presented to you in the node > called ‘(dir)Top’. All I know is that there is no 'dir' file in $(guix build emacs)/share/info. I think that a package shipping one directly would be wrong. Were I in your position, I would not manually mess around with environment variables (which is also 'clobbering' your main environment!), but instead maintain a separate Guix profile for my info manuals. Kind regards, T G-R Sent on the go. Excuse or enjoy my brevity.
