Hello,

I've recently setup two Debian11 machines, intalled Guix then Emacs using `guix install emacs`.
For some reason, it's impossible de input the `ê` character after `emacs -Q` ;
but it is possible to enter the `ê` character after `emacs -Q -nw`.

How to have `guix install emacs` install Emacs in such a way that accents like `ê` can be written?

Thank you,
PHF

Did you install glibc-locales and set GUIX_LOCPATH as mentioned in info
"(guix) Application Setup" ?

HTH,

Maxim

Thank you Maxime,

I've been following an older way (an internal tutorial) of setting up Guix with `glibc-utf8-locales` instead of the newer one using `glibc-locales`.
I've installed `glibc-locales` as specified in "(guix) Application Setup" and it now works as expected.
