To fix this, you would need to install the ‘nss-certs’ package and/or
set the relevant environment variables as described here:

You also need to run “guix package -i glibc-utf8-locales” as root to fix
this (the upcoming version will avoid this issue altogether.)

What does “guix package -A phf” return?
