Subject: bug#60364: Bad definition of $TEXMF in guix shell containing texlive
Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2022 19:56:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87edskziz8.fsf@posteo.net> (raw)
Hello,
In a shell environment that contains texlive instead of texlive-base, $TEXMF contains the path to texlive packages directly, indead of the path to all packages in the profile. It is a problem for packages obtained from another channel / custom package definitions, which are then not found.

My workaround was to set TEXMFHOME to $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT/share/texmf-dist in my (fish) shell configuration so it is expanded when entering the guix environment, but it doesn't work when running the command directly (as in guix shell texlive -- lualatex file).
