Just to clarify, installing the locales package will not make locales work on its own — the GUIX_LOCPATH variable needs to be set as well, and in at least two different contexts. But `guix install glibc-locales` should create the 'lib/locales' directory, and if it didn't then something is broken about package installation. > I'll report it then. Thanks!
