Re: LaTeX: Need help with packaging a book in GNU Guix

[Artyom V. Poptsov]

Hello Nicolas,

thank you very much for the help!  I've changed my "guix.scm" as you
suggested and now it works.

When I tried to remove "texlive" from inputs, I ran into the following
error:

As you can see, LaTeX cannot find "fontspec.sty" file.  I did some
research and found that the file belongs to "texlive" package.  So when
I returned "texlive" to inputs the build process went fine.

Thanks!
