It's not just a you problem, Savannah is down as is the whole gnu 
domain... there is an update here[1]. Hopefully things get back online soon.

You could try using a local guix checkout with the 
`--url=file:///path/to/checkout` if you have one... I'm not aware of any 
mirrors of the Guix repo though. Perhaps this something worth 
implementing? A trusted mirror? Hopefully Savannah won't experience any 
more outages, but completely losing the ability to `guix pull` during 
any outage is undesirable.
