Typo? The issue is not found.
Note that I do not care so much about the closure size, but about the
number of packages that are needed to just build guix (although of course
the two are related). Or otherwise said, the dependencies for "guix pull".
On "exotic" architectures, each dependency is a potential cause of failure,
and all in all it may take hours (days?) to run "guix pull" without
substitutes, with a high chance of failure.
