       I installed #Guix on a foreign disto. After installtion I'm getting a "Hint" to install a  loacale package and setting GUIX_LOCALE variable. So even after I did those, I still get those "Hint" as if nothing happened. Does  anyone know how to fix this?

       @redstarfish lol I tried the same but on Pure OS Amber yesterday to install #GUIX package manager but end up every time with an error. End up switching branch to Byzantium but now a lot a things are broken. Will ether switch to Gnu slash GUIX or Gnu Slash Debian Slash Sid.

       @ebo I guess it's some kind of bug in my case... I mean according to the manual I'm doing everything right. Next time I'll just install the Guix System Distribution.

       @mandrakerDid you solve the problem with locale? Can you see texts in a graphical application properly? @ebo
