Subject: Xfce4 localization in Guix System for only one exact user
Date: Fri, 02 Aug 2019 16:50:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <86d4f6ba9c399b811c852ca5494f3b46@disroot.org> (raw)

Hello! This is from those question people want just find one or two lines to paste in terminal and to get effect.
I did not find solution.
Please, how to make Xfce4 menus (right mouse click, maybe Main Menu) become Russian for only one user 'mom'?

As I know, packages are installing using locale settings. So, I need to configure my locale and reinstall Xfce4 (reconfigure system).

I have installed locale package as as Guix Manual says [1] with this command:

$ guix install glibc-locales
I have now 'locale' command in guix (but do not know exactly if it is provided with glibc-locales? and is it providing with glibc-utf8-locales ?):

$ locale
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf8"
LC_TIME="en_US.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.utf8"
LC_NAME="en_US.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8"
LC_ALL=
And I've found in the web the way to change locale that might work on Guix System:

$ localedef -c -i ru_RU -f UTF-8 ru_RU.utf8
cannot create temporary file: /run/current-system/locale/2.28/locale-archive.g44JbZ: Read-only file system

But as I can see need to do this by sudo user. So it will change locale for entire system. But I want localize Xfce4 for only user 'mom'.
Can I do it?
