Hi,

jgart <jgart@dismail.de> skribis:

> guile: warning: failed to install locale

This means that data for the locale you chose is cannot be found by the
C library used by Guile.

Typically, one chooses locale data by setting environment variables such
as ‘LC_ALL’ or ‘LANG’.

In Guix, locale data is provided separately from the C library (glibc).
You can either get it from the ‘glibc-locales’ package, which contains
all existing locales, or, on Guix System, you’ll get the locales you
asked for under /run/current-system/locale.

The manual has more details on setting up locales.

HTH!

Ludo’.
