Oh I see, I'm not familiar with how the infra works, but it looks like
aarch64 jobs aren't currently scheduled at all: https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/337714/details

Maybe we could restart it and see if we can reproduce the problem? I
wonder if there's a good reason for jobs not being scheduled, I saw
recent commits regarding new aarch64 HW being set up.

I'll be happy to help debug build issues when we know more of course!

Thanks,
Pierre
