Thank you.
I saw that "guix import texlive mathdots" doesn't include "#:trivial? #t" But I 
still don't see why it is not effectively a trivial package. As I told you, the 
".tex" and ".sty" are already in the TUG repo. And with the package as I 
defined it (as trivial), when you build it, you get the "mathdots.sty" and 
"mathdots.tex". No need to compile because, whereas there is a ".ins" file,  
".sty" and ".tex" are already compiled and distributed, along the ".ins". Right?
