T= his 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=3D$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale/2.22:$HOME/.guix-pro= file/lib/locale/2.23 The only question is whether having the =E2=80=9C/2.22=E2=80=9D prefix by d= efault is a good idea. Opinions? Ludo=E2=80=99.
