I do not know why it fails for you.  The substitute is available:

Hum, looking more closely,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix graph wine64 | grep curl
  "139723464965392" [label = "curl@7.79.1", shape = box, fontname = sans];
$ guix graph --path wine64 curl
wine64@7.8
gst-plugins-base@1.18.5
graphene@1.10.6
git-minimal@2.33.1
curl@7.79.1
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

but,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public curl
  (package
   (name "curl")
   (version "7.79.1")
   (replacement curl-7.84.0)

[...]

;; Replacement package with fixes for multiple vulnerabilities.
;; See <https://curl.se/docs/security.html>.
(define curl-7.84.0
  (package
    (inherit curl)
    (version "7.84.0")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And I do not know exactly which ’curl’ is thus considered.


Well, in any case, it fetches the substitutes,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix time-machine --commit=81cf674              \
     -- build  --no-grafts                        \
        -e '(@@ (gnu packages curl) curl-7.84.0)'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and it builds fine for me,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ guix time-machine --commit=81cf674              \
     -- build  --no-grafts                        \
        -e '(@@ (gnu packages curl) curl-7.84.0)' \
        --check
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

What is the output of these two commands for you?


Idem for the other curl@7.79.1.
