Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gnu: guix: Avoid Bash wrapper.
Date: Tue,  4 May 2021 15:39:57 +0200

The Bash wrapper created by 'wrap-program' creates an extra
indirection and may annoyingly emit locale warnings:

  /gnu/store/…-bash-minimal-5.0.16/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (wtf)

This warning would typically show up when running Guix, as produced by
'guix pack guix', on a foreign distro, annihilating efforts made in
1d4ab335b22a93e01c2eb1eb3e93fc6534157040 and
8a973abc6f7eebfcd8a904bfbb99cb9f86f66ef0.

* gnu/packages/package-management.scm (guix)[arguments]: In
'wrap-program' phase, remove 'string-join' call for PATH and GOPATH.
Replace 'wrap-program' call with a 'substitute*' form.  Remove (when
target ...) form.
[inputs]: Remove "bash-minimal" added in commit
38b9af7c92344a17b6680ebd2aeea14171f84a1c and no longer needed.
