To figure out where the package gets installed, try running this

find /var/guix/profiles -name sv_SE.utf8 -type d
It's obvious that that line will producethere.
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
because
the sv_SE.utf8 directory only exists in the store. But I don't see
the
point of looking it up in the store. The problem is that the link
into the
store from the root user profile is never created. (It *is*
created in
other 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.

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
