Hi,

I believe rebuilding will fix it:

  rm gnu/packages/*.go && make -j4

The reason is that bindings of deprecated packages like
‘texlive-latex-hyperref’ changed from regular bindings to macros; here
Guile stumbles upon the macro at run time when it instead expects a
<package> record.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
