Bug 33094 refers to this issue. There is no bug specifically about LaTeX, but LaTeX on Guix has been broken for a year or so. I think it was only discussed informally on guix-devel. -- Pierre Neidhardt https://ambrevar.xyz/ signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Inverted index to accelerate guix package search
