Do you know why building Guix manual fails to build with older
"texinfo.tex"?
If this related to some special texinfo syntax used in Guix manual?
Yes. It's the use of @inlinefmtifelse command. (perhaps other commands too).
What about checking in texinfo.tex and removing the -f (--force) option
when invoking 'autoreconf'? This would ensure that texinfo.tex is not
overwritten.
I guess it might work. But I haven't tried it.
