Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/2] Avoiding incompatible locale data in LOCPATH
Date: Sun, 04 Oct 2015 14:32:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bnce7r1j.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87mvvzrpsf.fsf@mdc-berlin.de> (Ricardo Wurmus's message of "Sun, 4 Oct 2015 10:39:12 +0200")

So with current ‘core-updates’, someone on a “foreign distro” needs to
do:

  guix package -i glibc-locales
  export GUIX_LOCPATH=$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale/2.22

Note the extra “/2.22”, which comes from commit f2d7bbb.  This is a bit
of an annoyance for end users, but the point is that eventually this
would allow us to recommend things like:

  export GUIX_LOCPATH=$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale/2.22:$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale/2.23

The only question is whether having the “/2.22” prefix by default is a
good idea.  Opinions?

Ludo’.
