Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for narrowing it down.
It turns out that replacing `texlive-tiny' with `texlive-base' in the manifest
did the trick. So, the message for future readers is, if you want your own
subset of TexLive, start with `texlive-base' in your manifest, then add
whichever other packages, or fonts you need.
Cheers,
T
