There is progress; I have now installed texlive-base without
conflicting packages:

```
marco@graviton ~$ guix package -r texlive-latex-base texlive-fonts-latex -i texlive-base
guile: warning: failed to install locale

texlive-base    51265   out     /gnu/store/iccw4cdkcgmccl5svndji830k55v9cxy-texlive-base-51265
```

But I have a locale issue:

```
marco@graviton ~/temp$ export LANG="nl_NL.utf8"
marco@graviton ~/temp$ lualatex test
Unable to read environment locale: exit now.
marco@graviton ~/temp$ locale -a | grep '\bnl_NL.utf8\b'
nl_NL.utf8
```
