Help with locale
Hi! I just installed guix on top of Debian Buster using the installation script at guix.gnu.org. At any guix command, it the complains: guile: warning: failed to install locale I have installed glibc-locales, however it seems like the reason for the above is that there is no link from .guix-profile/lib/locale to the glibc-locales package. If I put a link there manually, the warning above disappears, but as soon as the profile is updated (at a guix pull pulling in new packages, e.g.), there is again no locales link and the warning returns. Why is it like this? How can I avoid this nuisance? Best regards, Mikael Djurfeldt
Problem with guix offload
Hi,
I just installed guix on top of Debian Buster using the installation script
at guix.gnu.org. I did this on two machines, hat and wand, with the hope
that I could offload compilation to wand.
This is what I get:
root@hat:~# guix offload test
guile: warning: failed to install locale
hint: Consider installing the `glibc-utf8-locales' or `glibc-locales'
package and
defining `GUIX_LOCPATH', along these lines:
guix package -i glibc-utf8-locales
export GUIX_LOCPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale"
See the "Application Setup" section in the manual, for more info.

Yeah I'm looking for desktop solutions. I don't have the resources to selfhost apps or services. I'm considering using a wristwatch for all my computing again.

Re: Help with locale
Considering this conversation : https://framapiaf.org/web/statuses/103580390068629106 You could try these commands with your user AND with the root user : $ guix pull && guix upgrade && guix install glibc-locales $ sudo -i # guix pull && guix upgrade && guix install glibc-locales # exit # reboot Also, there is also a package for utf-8 locales : glibc-utf8-locales.

If you installed it for root, it should show up in root's '~/.guix-profile/lib/locale', but not for any other user.

However, I I didn't find the swedish UTF8 locales in glic-utf8-locales. That's why I used glic-locales.

We are probably going to deprecate it soon to avoid more confusion. We really need to make locales on Guix "just work".

As root, can you do `guix package --list-installed` and send the results here? Also, as root, can you send the result of `echo $GUIX_LOCPATH`? And finally, again as root, the result of `ls -l ~root/.guix-profile/lib/locale`? How are you "becoming root", by the way?

The .guix-profile directory is a symlink union of all the packages in the user's profile, so it should definitely contain a 'lib/locale' directory if the user has installed glibc-locales. What is the result of `ls -l ~root/.guix-profile`?

You should install glibc-locales as root, and then restart the guix-daemon with `systemctl daemon-reload && systemctl restart guix-daemon`. If you definitely did have glibc-locales installed for root and it did not show up in the profile, that's a bug.

Please double-check. > I did. I've checked. Of course it *is* a bug that the simple action of installing glibc-locales after a pure install doesn't result in locales taking effect (or that lib/locales doesn't exist). I just wanted to have people with more context than I have a look at it, in case I had missed something. I'll report it then. Thanks!

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!
