As I said, "/usr/local/share/info" has the symbolic links. Additionally,
now that you mention it, searching for
"/var/guix/profiles/per-user/root/current-guix/share/info/guix"{,".*"}".info"*
returns the Texinfo files, but not in .GZ format.

That said, they do exist and are readable there. I'll get a foreign
distribution image to test using QEMU and observe the behavior from
there when my other tasks allow me to.
