Didn't know about this, interesting take... :)
My two cents because I'm not sure it fits the list:
- `man' is broken.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2018-05/msg00084.html
It seems trivial but I don't think we should put a 1.0 stamp on an OS that can't
display standard documentation correctly.
I'll open a bug about it, I can work on it later.
- As Julien mentioned recently, I think we should provide a "stable"
channel. Is it already implied by the new (guix channel) module?
- `guix package --upgrade' reverses the order of packages.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2018-04/msg00070.html
https://bugs.gnu.org/31142
I think "infinite upgrades" will look very ugly to the casual user, we ought to
fix that :)
- TeXlive... (sigh!)
TeXlive is rather important for lots of users but also lots of packages.
Some packages (e.g. "asymptote" and "mit-scheme") currently depend on the full
TeXlive distribution (5GB). This is way too much for many users (low disk
space, low bandwidth, or simply lack of time).
I'm working on adding the missing individual TeXlive packages, but it's
surprisingly hard, so help is more than welcome.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2018-05/msg00218.html
We also need a user hook to install individual packages to the user profile:
https://bugs.gnu.org/27217
Anything among these deemed for a post 1.0 release?
