Hi,

There are two discussions here:
1. Should we "mandate" the use of patman?
2. Should we describe how to use patman for submitting patches to Guix?
I think most agree with the latter, but disagree with the former. 
Thus, whatever steps you add for the use with patman must be easily
enough replicated by people not using it, or else we risk low adoption
of best practices.

I think [2] is distinct here in that it discusses Guix-specific quirks
when using TeX.

Cheers
