Subject: [bug#67686] [PATCH core-updates 5/5] gnu: glibc: Ensure C.UTF-8 locale is always found.
Date: Thu,  7 Dec 2023 11:22:48 +0100

This change ensures that $prefix/lib/locale, which now contains C.UTF-8
data, is always searched.  Thus, “setlocale (LC_ALL, "C.UTF-8")” is
guaranteed to always succeed.

* gnu/packages/patches/glibc-2.37-versioned-locpath.patch: Adjust.
