[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]
Hello all,

I'm currently switching from using the monolithic texlive package to a
bunch of the broken-out, smaller ones. However, when texlive-bin is
installed (and thus, when luaotfload-tool is available), the environment
variable $TEXMFCACHE is not defined. This leads to it being auto-detected
(and incorrectly identified somehow as
`$PWD/'{'$GUIX_PROFILE/share/texmf-dist` which is read-only.)

As a workaround, I have added an explicit definition for $TEXMFCACHE in
my .bash_profile, but I wanted to report this as a bug in case someone
more familiar with the package could fix it.

This is actually fixed in latest TeX Live update.

I'm closing it.
