Hello there,

I have seen your signature here:
https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2019/joint-statement-on-the-gnu-project/

My opinion on your signing of that defamatory, harassing, biased and
fact-less statement is here:
https://gnu.support/richard-stallman/Ludovic-Court%C3%A8s-Guix-is-accusing-Stallman-of-Thoughtcrime-on-his-own-domain-GNU-org.html

Hereby I would like to ask you:

- why are you publishing such hatred on GNU.ORG domain? Why don't you
  publish it on your own personal domain? RMS is not doing that to
  GNU. You are doing it together with others. I find it grossly
  inappropriate!

- which facts do you consider that can support your statement "that
  Stallman’s behavior over the years has undermined a core value of
  the GNU project: the empowerment of all computer users. GNU is not
  fulfilling its mission when the behavior of its leader alienates a
  large part of those we want to reach out to."?

It would be nice of you, if you could send me your opinion in as fast
manner as you have given a signature to Ludovic Courtès to publish it
on GUIX.GNU.ORG

I am entitling you to your opinion. I could not care less what people
write about each other, whatever rumours or facts would be. I don't
mind. 

But I do not approve on publishing that on GUIX website or GNU.ORG
website. Neither I approve of publishing such statements without
commenting possibility.

That is why I am asking you to speak out your mind now. I will publish
your opinion or lack of opinion. I will publish facts you provide me
or lack of those facts.

You have contact form on my opposing view:
https://gnu.support/richard-stallman/Ludovic-Court%C3%A8s-Guix-is-accusing-Stallman-of-Thoughtcrime-on-his-own-domain-GNU-org.html
and you can test me if I will publish your comments or not.

But give me facts that support your statement!

Ludovic Courtès is forbidding comments on his personal blog which he
is mixing with GUIX project on GNU.ORG website.

So what is your opinion? What are the facts?

This is most probably a transient core-updates effect. Reconfigure should
fix this, and this should be harmless.

Because of the locale problems every time there is a merge, I've tried to 
upgrade
as follows:

sudo -i
LC_ALL=C guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm

string to output locale" 84 #f #f)'.

Can we please do something about these encoding problems once and for all?

Most have standardized on UTF-8 in like 2000, so why does this keep happening?

Also, what is it that changes the locale database format so fundamentally each
and every time that it can't be used any more?  Human culture doesn't change 
that
quickly :P

The reason I set LC_ALL=C is because with my usual language setting I cannot see
where the log file is when a build failure occurs:

>Das Erstellungsprotokoll kann unter â eingesehen werden.

 ^ You got this E-Mail right.  That's what 
it said.

That is very bad usability.

If there's an official way to make these upgrades not break (automatically 
update
in a cron job, say), is it documented in the manual how to do that?

On the other hand:

$ LC_ALL=de_AT.utf8 guix package -u . # With broken locales.
[...]
>Das Erstellungsprotokoll kann unter â eingesehen werden.

 ^ You got this E-Mail right.  That's what 
it said.

$ LC_ALL=C guix package -u . # With broken locales.
[...]
View build log at 
'/var/log/guix/drvs/3y/jqbvjchd344qwg62x0gbj95dx0vfk9-simple-scan-3.24.1.drv.bz2'.

There it works.

Furthermore, I cannot log in on the Linux console.  It doesn't ask for the
password and doesn't let me log in either.  (I wanted to see whether the
text console does the same--well, I guess we won't know)

2019-10-09 Thread Danny Milosavljevic 
After retrying "reconfigure" a few more times, it did work.  Now I rebooted and
now I can also log into the Linux console again.  Locale problems seem to be
gone away--for now.

Note that I report this stuff because it's a general problem all our users see
(and probably never report--they just delete Guix instead).
