Yes,

```
admin <at> ip-172-31-11-27:~$ echo $GUIX_LOCPATH
/home/admin/.guix-profile/lib/locale
admin <at> ip-172-31-11-27:~$ guix package -I
guile: warning: failed to install locale
hint: Consider installing the `glibc-utf8-locales' or `glibc-locales' package
and defining `GUIX_LOCPATH', along these lines:

     guix package -i glibc-utf8-locales
     export GUIX_LOCPATH="$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/locale"

See the "Application Setup" section in the manual, for more info.

glibc-utf8-locales      2.29    out     /gnu/store/n79cf8bvy3k96gjk1rf18d36w40lkwlr-glibc-utf8-locales-2.29
```
