Hum,

That makes sense, however the command bailing out is kind of confusing.
Would it be possible to configure those heavy packages so that they
automatically fallback to native compilation.

Anyway I don't understand how the full texlive end up being built when
running ‘guix system build /etc/config.scm’ since the configuration
contains only the following services and packages:

  (packages (cons* nss-certs         ;for HTTPS access
                   gvfs              ;for user mounts
		   samba
		   cifs-utils
		   nfs-utils
                   %base-packages))

  (services (cons* (console-keymap-service "fr")
		   (xfce-desktop-service)
		   (mate-desktop-service)
		   (service cups-service-type
			    (cups-configuration
			     (web-interface? #t)
			     (extensions (list cups-filters hplip))))
		   (extra-special-file "/usr/bin/env"
				       (file-append coreutils "/bin/env"))
		   %desktop-services))

The only reference of texlive I have is ”texlive-tiny“ which is only in
my user profile and is already built.

Thank you for the explanation.
