Indentation looks wrong here.

This doesn't look like a trivial package since it contains a ".ins"
file. You need to generate the ".tex" and ".sty" files from it.

The first sentence should contain a subject. Also \\ddots ->
@code{\\dots}

Could you send an updated patch?

I am not sure how it's wrong. Path will follow. Is it better?

I think it is, "tex/generic/mathdots/" in tug repo contains ".tex" and ".sty" and if I compile, they are here.
First texlive package I package. I tried `guix import texlive mathdots` then amended by looking at other texlive packages. Please show me if I am wrong.

It is. Thanks.

"guix import texlive mathdots" output doesn't include "#:trivial? #t"
for a reason. You need to take a longer path and generate runfiles from
the ".ins" file ; see e.g., "texlive-capt-of".

Thank you.
I saw that "guix import texlive mathdots" doesn't include "#:trivial? #t" But I still don't see why it is not effectively a trivial package. As I told you, the ".tex" and ".sty" are already in the TUG repo. And with the package as I defined it (as trivial), when you build it, you get the "mathdots.sty" and "mathdots.tex". No need to compile because, whereas there is a ".ins" file,  ".sty" and ".tex" are already compiled and distributed, along the ".ins". Right?

Whenever possible, Guix builds packages from source, and avoids using
pre-compiled files. In this case, we can generate ".sty" and ".tex"
files, so let's do that. Does that make sense?

Yes it does! Thank you. I will try :).
