This fixes a bug whereby /var/run/utmpx would never be created, and thus

LUKS-encrypted partition.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/21843>.
* gnu/build/install.scm (install-grub): Add 'setenv' to set

and honor it.

luksFormat'. Remove 'sed' invocation.

<live-service>.

accordingly.

/run/current-system/locale being ignored.
