The only environment variable(s?) defined for the guix-daemon process on that machine is: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ pidof guix-daemon 270 sudo cat /proc/270/environ GUIX_LOCPATH=/gnu/store/94k5w17z54w25lgp90czdqfv9m4hwzhq-glibc-utf8-locales-2.28/lib/localeLC_ALL=en_US.utf8 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I'm not familiar with this systemfs structure, but shouldn't there be a newline before the LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 variable assignment? It's the same on a 2nd GuixSD machine. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ sudo guix substitute --help # Usage: guix substitute [OPTION]... ... --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- No infamous locale error here. Not sure what happened here :-/ Maxim
