The issue is wide-spread: there are a number of packages that will=20 install files who=E2=80=99s names only vary by case. It=E2=80=99s also=20 per-package; most work fine, but some will just break=20 randomly. Some don=E2=80=99t seem to break until you try to use them, and=20 then they yell and complain. This is something I run into often=20 enough that it=E2=80=99s familiar to me and know how to fix, but not often= =20 enough to prevent my surprise when it happens. Guix can=E2=80=99t fix it, unfortunately. Maybe checking case sensitivity=20 would be a worthwhile thing to do, just to warn people, but: I=20 don=E2=80=99t know of a good way to check this in a file-system=20 independent manner, and I honestly doubt it=E2=80=99s something that=20 actually happens that often. I=E2=80=99ve been trucking a ZFS storage pool= =20 around since I first installed it on macOS about a decade ago, and=20 since macOS is case-insensitive, that=E2=80=99s how it was installed (case= =20 sensitivity causes its own issues there). Short of running Guix on=20 Windows or macOS, I don=E2=80=99t see this being a problem. -bjc
