bug#65282: guix-1.3 on Ubuntu-22.04 is broken because of outdated datefudge.

[Dmitry Nikolaev via Bug reports for GNU Guix]

Hello.

I recently tried to install guix on Ubuntu 22.04 from APT. Installation 
goes well, but 'guix pull' does not work. It tries to download 
datefudge-1.23, but fails.

As you can see, datefudge-1.23 is outdated. Even Debian oldstable is 
using datefudge-1.24. My last hope was to download it from 
ci.guix.gnu.org, but I got gnutls-error.

Looks like guix-1.3 is completely unusable on Ubuntu.

Hello, you could try follow substitute mirrors if ci doesn't works:

ci mirror:       https://mirror.sjtu.edu.cn/guix/
bordeaux:        https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org
bordeaux mirror: https://bordeaux-singapore-mirror.cbaines.net
bordeaux mirror: https://bordeaux-us-east-mirror.cbaines.net

Hope this could be useful, thanks!

That's been reported before (lack of connectivity from Russia); the best
current solution is to remove https://ci.guix.gnu.org from your
substitute servers and use one of the above alternatives.

Also, is there a reason to use Guix 1.3?  Guix 1.4 has long been
released.

Closing; thank you for the report.
