On second thought, I think removing ‘canonical-package’ calls from (gnu
system locale) should work.  What matters there is that we build locales
with the matching libc (same version, not necessarily same store item.)

The only downside will be potentially an extra glibc download/build to
build the locale set, but that’s probably OK.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
