Hello Guix,
The Texinfo manual says [0] that I should be able to use @abbr, and
prefer it over @acronym when the text is not all capital letters, but I
get a backtrace when I try to use it in a package description:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

If this isn't an oversight, and not all Texinfo markup is supported,
that should be noted in the manual.

Oh right, Guile’s Texinfo implementation doesn’t support 100% of Texinfo
markup.
We could write it down in the Guix manual, but we could also improve
Guile’s Texinfo modules, especially since such additions should be
relatively simple.
Thanks,
Ludo’.
