bug#25913: metabug: move gna.org packages to new upstream locations

[ng0]

As you might have noticed (or not), gna.org is closing down soon.

Read http://gna.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=2545 for more on the
subject.

So we need to move yet another bunch of packages to where ever they moved
now. The sources I mean. And maybe notify upstream in case you feel like
it.

I will open this as a bug so that it can be closed once it is done.
Please close this bug once all packages have been moved.


Packages are few in number:

[user@abyayala ~/src/guix/guix]$ egrep -nr "gna.org" gnu/packages
gnu/packages/guile.scm:1289:                    "http://download.gna.org/guile-dbi/guile-dbi-"

Thanks!

Dear,

Currently the packages "gdsl" and "guile-dbi" are still downloading

I am not user of gdsl so I do not know if there is another location.
Ricardo? As you added it (2016), do you know?

Christopher, you have recently updated "guile-dbi", do you know
another location?


In both case, I propose to place them in any Gitlab or Github
location. What do you think?


All the best,
simon
