Interesting, this time it worked, but I was seeing it for a week, and I did
'guix pull', 'guix system reconfigure' and reboot, and it never worked, while
moving glibc-locales from system profile to user profile. Although I was
testing this on a server (accessible over SSH only).
Anyways, now all good (with glibc-locales package in system profile), so thank
you!
