To reproduce the bug:

* install guix on top of an ordinary linux distribution using the install
script at guix.gnu.org

* install glibc-locales as root

Expected:

There should be a link ~root/.guix-profile/lib/locales

Actual:

No such link has been installed.

Note:

The link does get installed for other users than root.
