It appears as though core-updates isn't installing locales
correctly, as I'm getting warnings all over the place about
unsupported locales:

Toggle snippet (4 lines)
~/src/guix-core-updates $ echo $LANG
en_US.utf8

Starting Emacs:

Toggle snippet (7 lines)
~/src/guix-core-updates $ emacs

(process:5828): Gtk-WARNING **: 10:06:55.544: Locale not supported
by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.

Or herd:

Toggle snippet (19 lines)
~/src/guix-core-updates $ herd status
guile: warning: failed to install locale

Fixed in 4f4c38c881d4224dc545c82253d2a8f631f95927 (you’ll need to
reconfigure).

The reason for those “unsupported locales” is that glibc 2.35 locale
data is ignored by your previously-installed glibc 2.33 programs:


Thanks!
