Subject: Can’t find sicp.info-1 or any compressed
 version of it

Hello, guixers!

An update of sicp package from version 20180718-2.bda03f7 to
20180718-3.bda03f7 has broken Info variant of the book.

emacs M-x info now complains:

  Can’t find sicp.info-1 or any compressed version of it

AFAICS after commit c9f82d57eb "gnu: sicp: Fix build."  chapter files of
the Info manual (sicp.info-1 .. sicp.info-6) are not installed.

I've fixed that locally, in a guix.scm-like copy of sicp package
definition copied from gnu/packages/scheme.scm, with the following:

Think this will help.
And thank you!

Thanks for the report.  I've fixed it using the makeinfo '--no-split'
option in commit 321ae25a2 ("gnu: sicp: Build as a single info file.")

Closing!
