As a matter of fact, I did! I am not at home with my guix-related work
right now. The short of it, is that I created a simple record type
(e.g. `tlpdb-package'). The tlpdb-parser we worked on at FOSDEM was able
to generate these structures from the tlpdb file, although translating
tlpdb-package records into actual guix packages was a step I did not
work on yet.
One of the problems I ran into was exactly what Ricardo described; the
fact that sources for texlive packages currently have a slight semantic
mismatch with what we have for most guix packages. If we have a solution
for this, the result of *any* of our importers would look a lot nicer.
