Emacs is capable of exporting to PDF by the use of pdflatex. This
program is available in Trisquel and PureOS (as a Debian inheritance) by
way of the 'texlive-latex-base' package. With Guix, even after
installing 'texlive-base' package (which depends on
'texlive-latex-base'), Emacs would give the error of missing 'pdflatex'
when exporting to PDF. The only solution to exporting to PDF on Emacs on
a foreign distro is to install 'texlive-latex-base' via 'sudo apt
install'. On GSD (Guix System Distribution) it is impossible to export
to PDF on Emacs.
