I think either list is fine.  You encountered a real bug, after 
all; it's not your job to know it was ‘fixed’ or that it wasn't 
‘actually’ related to texlive at all.

Searching issues.guix.gnu.org for existing bug reports first is 
appreciated, but it's not always easy to guess which keywords to 
use.

Plus: closing bugs is fun.  Doing so now.

Kind regards,

T G-R

Hello,
'guix install texlive' results in the following error:
'guix install: error: integer expected from stream'

I found a previous bug report https://issues.guix.gnu.org/51983, but
don't have fully understanding of it at the moment.

my guix describe:
  guix b891f85
    repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
    branch: master
    commit: b891f8519dbea5457d9ad154974b1ab1459b4b8b

Happy Holidays to all those who celebrate them,
Michael
