As long as I run guix I was never able to build the documentation
as pdf. What's wrong with it?

[user <at> abyayala ~/src/guix/guix]$ make doc/guix.pdf
  TEXI2PDF doc/guix.pdf
  /gnu/store/jz7jq4w8d4czvgnk9as07rrdbcfjjgjj-profile/bin/texi2dvi: pdftex exited with bad status, quitting.
  make: *** [Makefile:3591: doc/guix.pdf] Error 1
