Am I doing wrong? I used the installer here on parabola and I found this (with 'locate'): the manual was found both in the store in a profile (not my current) and in /usr/local/share/info/ After adjusting my infopath to this it worked like a charm: export INFOPATH="/home/sdb/.guix-profile/share/info:/usr/local/share/info${INFOPATH:+:}$INFOPATH" -- Cheers Swedebugia
