Hello,

Hinko Kocevar <Hinko.Kocevar@esss.se> skribis:

> I followed the instructions to set up locale for user (https://www.gnu.or=
g/software/guix/manual/guix.html#Application-Setup), but I'm still getting =
these messages for each guix invocation:
>
> substitute: guile: warning: failed to install locale
> substitute: warning: failed to install locale: Invalid argument

These warnings come from the =E2=80=98guix substitute=E2=80=99 process, whi=
ch is spawned
as root by =E2=80=98guix-daemon=E2=80=99.

To fix it, you need to add GUIX_LOCPATH to =E2=80=98guix-daemon.service=E2=
=80=99 if it=E2=80=99s
not already there, like this:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/etc/guix-daemon.service.i=
n#n10

HTH,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
