From afec2784174058fdd85d9698e1fa748c45bfa8ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Maxim Cournoyer Date: Mon, 3 May 2021 15:57:24 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ui: Suggest installing glibc-locales, not glibc-utf8-locales. Users (both old and new) struggling with locale warnings is a recurrent theme; part of it may be due to the glibc-utf8-locales package being misleading, as it only includes a subset of the UTF-8 locales. To prevent confusion, suggest installing the glibc-locales package instead. * guix/ui.scm (install-locale): Do not mention glibc-utf8-locales in the hint message. Use glibc-locales instead of glibc-utf8-locales in the provided example. --- guix/ui.scm | 7 +++---- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/guix/ui.scm b/guix/ui.scm index 334dce2c68..e2cf2f1f5e 100644 --- a/guix/ui.scm +++ b/guix/ui.scm @@ -492,12 +492,11 @@ (define (install-locale) (lambda _ (setlocale LC_ALL "")) (lambda args - (display-hint (G_ "Consider installing the @code{glibc-utf8-locales} or -@code{glibc-locales} package and defining @code{GUIX_LOCPATH}, along these -lines: + (display-hint (G_ "Consider installing the @code{glibc-locales} package +and defining @code{GUIX_LOCPATH}, along these lines: @example -guix install glibc-utf8-locales +guix install glibc-locales export GUIX_LOCPATH=\"$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale\" @end example
