cogrendel on #guix reported [0] this failure while installing texlive:

------

I know we recently started serving this file from Hydra again, but I
wonder if the Hydra mirror is up to the task?

Based on their report, the build failed even with --fallback. Perhaps
when process 11204 was killed, the whole thing stopped? I'm not able to
verify this currently.

cogrendel clarified that --fallback still works in this case.

Hi, I haven't tried --fallback, but I experienced incomplete download of
texlive too. Bandwith was good at 2.7 MB/s, but the download of texlive
would always be interrupted around 15% (less than 2 minutes after
starting).

Hmm I wonder if there’s an nginx/firewall/whatever issue.

I'm closing this because we have a new build farm as the default source
of substitutes.
