Re: website: Building fails because of missing locales

[Julien Lepiller]

What I intended with the patch was to provide those locales in the environment, so you'd set GUIX_LOCPATH=$GUIX_PROFILE/lib/locale (and I thought guix would do it itself). Now I noticed it did not work as expected: it creates the directory directly under the profile instead of under lib/locale. Give me a moment to send a v2.

Weird, is GUIX_LOCPATH not set at all maybe?

I have this:

For what it's worth, using the packages from my user profile, I can setlocale from a Guile REPL to "de_DE.utf8"  and it works. I also tried it on my website, which is internationalized and localized, made it build pages in that same locale, and it works too (although it doesn't use Haunt nor Guix i18n mechanism, but it is Guile Scheme).
