Ooh, I see. To work around an issue in our glibc 2.23 package (that I
forgot to fix in 2.24), whereby glibc does not look for locale data in
/run/current-system/locale, commit
ab3a64507a792e4da0527b423fbc28f8768e736a sets GUIX_LOCPATH in
/etc/environment.
However, that doesn’t help with daemons, because those do not honor that
file.
I suppose the untested patch below would work around it. Could you try
and report back? (Will require a reboot or testing with ‘guix system
vm’.)
Thanks,
Ludo’.
