Hello,
Going back to the R dependencies topic, I ran across an issue when
trying to draw a plot (with ggplot2). But first some context:
- I'm not using GuixSD but a binary installation over Manjaro OpenRC;
several base packages missing on Guix
- I only have other two Guix packages installed: xpdf & abbaye
- I installed ggplot2 through install.packages("ggplot2") in R (Guix package)
R complained about some fonts missing, but I think it could be related
to a missing X11 dependency (complete Xorg maybe?). What could it be?
