But thank you for your hypothesis above! I tried a different line with ls -lLR and grep and then discovered that the links *are* indeed installed in a different profile.
This led me to find my problem: For some rea an empty result. That is
becausethe sv_SE.utf8 directory only exists in the store. But I don't seethepoint of looking it up in the store. The problem is that the linkinto thestore from the root user profile is never created. (It *is*created inother user profiles.)I suspected that Guix installed it to a different user profile somehow, since you did not get any errors apart from the missing directory (if I read the bug report correctly). Does 'guix install hello' work?Same problem there. But thank you for your hypothesis above! I tried a different line with ls -lLR and grep and then discovered that the links *are* indeed installed in a different profile. This led me to find my problem: For some reason, my ~root/.guix-profile was pointing to the current-guix profile rather than the guix-profile. It could have been me who did that. :( Anyway, problem solved! This was not a guix bug.
Not so fast! I just did the same yesterday using the install-script but on a RedHat server, and my /root/.config/guix/current pointed at /var/guix/profiles/per-user/MYOTHERUSER/current-guix instead of /var/guix-profiles/per-user/root/current-guix which it should be pointing at! I also think this is related to https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guix/2020-01/msg00241.html
