Multiple Versions of Packages?

[John Darrington]

I'm trying to package Octave.

It seems that it needs Texinfo to build.  Furthermore, it does not work with 
Texinfo 5.2 which
is what we have in guix.   I looked at patching it, but it would be non-trivial.

I suspect there is still quite a bit of software in the wild that does not work 
with Texinfo 5.x
Can we have Texinfo 5 and Texinfo 4 concurrently in guix?
