Oh, I've never noticed that I use 6.0. It's because I update my
profiles using "guix package --manifest" facility and:
(@ (gnu packages texinfo) texinfo) gives Texinfo 6.0
Is there a reason why we keep so many versions of texinfo? In
particular why there is ‘texinfo-6.1’ variable, while ‘texinfo’ is still
6.0?
