Hey,

I think something may have broken recently with the guix publish
service. I run this on a server with very basic configuration, just
setting the host, but I noticed recently that there were problems using
the service. The following example is guix failing to download something
from that server.

Downloading http://beid.cbaines.net/nar/gzip/pwg84wqsniamc4vx9c7p06284i5rxiay-wxwidgets-3.0.3...

I reverted the 4 recent changes [1], changed the service configuration
to use (guix (current-guix)) and now it seems to be working again.

I've had a look through the changes, I couldn't spot anything, but I
think there could be a regression in these changes [1].

Thanks,

Chris
