I'm trying to build the installer with

    guix system image -t iso9660 gnu/system/install.scm

This fails:

    build of /gnu/store/64r5f7ikrjwzs9bslhfabv1p8r5gzk83-glibc-supported-locales.scm.drv failed

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Looking at gnu/system/locale.scm I can see that the PATH does not
include zstd but only xz.

Adding

     #+(file-append zstd "/bin") ":"

to the PATH definition in glibc-supported-locales fixed this for me.
