Subject: bug#24988: Guix requests substitute for non-substitutable package
Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2016 18:05:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87lgwbla23.fsf@elephly.net> (raw)

Guix requests a substitute for “texlive-texmf” even though it is marked
as not substitutable.  This is a problem for many users because hydra
does not offer a substitute for this package.  Users have to pass
“--fallback” to make Guix build the package from source.

Only the “texlive-texmf” package is marked as not substitutable.
