Most notably, it doesn't see coreutils. The command-line info seems to see everything just fine. I'm running Trisquel+Guix. I use the info and coreutils that came with Trisquel, while Emacs is installed with Guix. I would expect both info and Emacs to use the same INFOPATH environment variable. Here are the relevant lines from ~/.profile: export INFOPATH=PATH ... GUIX_PROFILE="$HOME/.guix-profile" ; source "$HOME/.guix-profile/etc/profile" And the relevant line from ~/.guix-profile/etc/profile: export INFOPATH="${GUIX_PROFILE:-/gnu/store/38lybr3lz7d2i1pqx9p025jiinxcpa8m-profile}/share/info${INFOPATH:+:}$INFOPATH" Thanks for any help, Luther
