Dear guix hackers,

unison (gnu/packages/ocaml.scm) does not build (the install-doc phase
fails) on core-updates-frozen, because it lacks at least texlive-fonts-
ec as an input, and then it fails with:

dvips: ! Couldn't find header file: l3backend-dvips.pro

I tried to add texlive-latex-l3backend, but it does not fix the
problem.

Best regards,

Vivien

So, trying to understand why the error happens, I added all the known
texlive packages (exported variables in gnu/packages/texlive.scm that
start with texlive- and that are packages), and it still fails, but if I
just add the full texlive it builds just fine.

Rekado on #guix told me that I had to create a simple texlive package
for the missing package, that’s what I did. Since I’m not familiar with
the texlive way of doing things, I’m not sure the homepage is that of
l3backend (and thus, I’m not sure of the license if it’s not), and I
need someone to review the description for the package too.
