"guix import pypi" fails now with "guix pulled" guix.

The "guix pulled" guix is:

latest -> /gnu/store/97s03kq3ppc626bw6hpnyhias2pmp5wp-guix-latest

.

$ guix import pypi pytest-warnings

But "guix import pypi" works with git checkout I manually compiled:

$ ./pre-inst-env guix import pypi pytest-warnings
guile: warning: failed to install locale
warning: failed to install locale: Invalid argument
