Hi Ludovic,
Regarding commit a24b75d8e1753da629ecf945f4022eee4c340aed:
The built texinfo 5.0 packages contain a few uses of 'perl' that are not
pointing to a specific version in /nix/store:
./bin/pod2texi:1:#!/nix/store/777jas1fcgc38hmvq6lq1sa9k67f10kl-coreutils-8.20/bin/env perl
./bin/texi2dvi:1437: perl -pe 's<\\documentclass(?:\[.*\])?{.*}>
./bin/texi2dvi:1544: perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//g' "$out_base"*;;
./bin/texi2any:1:#!/nix/store/777jas1fcgc38hmvq6lq1sa9k67f10kl-coreutils-8.20/bin/env perl
Regards,
Mark

Yes, I know, but since in ‘core-updates’ we’ll change ‘patch-shebang’ to
handle /usr/bin/env specially, that’ll work well there.

Okay. In the meantime, 'mailutils' fails to build because of this
problem:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
CCLD libmu_scm.la
GEN mailutils.scm
GEN guile-procedures.txt

WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system. You should only need it if
you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. The spurious
call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
DU, IRIX). You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
the `GNU make' package. Grab either from any GNU archive site.

I don't care that much, but that's how the problem came to my attention.

FYI When I recently upgraded to texinfo-5, I had to make a soft link
ln -s texi2any makeinfo
The link was supposed to be made in the package, but it wasn't. It
might be relevant to you.

Oh, good point.
In the meantime f6d7be1 works around the issue.
Thanks,

I just installed (from Guix) it and it did create the symlink.

It created the symlink for me as well.

Unless I'm mistaken, that will fix only 2 out of 4 of the occurrences:
./bin/pod2texi:1:#!/nix/store/777jas1fcgc38hmvq6lq1sa9k67f10kl-coreutils-8.20/bin/env perl
./bin/texi2dvi:1437: perl -pe 's<\\documentclass(?:\[.*\])?{.*}>
./bin/texi2dvi:1544: perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//g' "$out_base"*;;
./bin/texi2any:1:#!/nix/store/777jas1fcgc38hmvq6lq1sa9k67f10kl-coreutils-8.20/bin/env perl

Indeed, sorry for overlooking that.
That’s a case for ‘wrap-program’, also scheduled for ‘core-updates’.
(Note that f6d7be1 fixes all of them, because it puts Perl in $PATH, but
that’s obviously not the best solution.)
Thanks,
Ludo’.
