Speaking of core-updates, I made a mistake during the latest merge
last spring. We needed a new wget release and the wget maintainers took
some time, so I rolled a "non-release" 1.21.3.24 before the 1.21.4
release (in core-updates, commit 93f9c260ac333ae7b86bfaeeead674fe01d924ce
updates wget to the 1.21.4 release, one more reason to hope for a merge
soon), for which I stored a .tar.lz on a server of my own.

However, this release does not exist (and I actually removed the file from
the server, but for the time being keep it still around on my laptop, and
it is still available in the build farm); and I did not realise it would
break the time machine (which I did not use at the time).

Is there a good way forward to allow a way backward?

Sorry for the breakage,

Andreas

Maybe you can make it available again in that URL and archive it via
web.archive.org so that downloads can fall back to it?

Thanks

I’ve now uploaded a copy of that tarball to ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guix/mirror.
As a rule of thumb, we should always store upstream tarball copies or
variants thereof on that server.

For the record, here’s what we get right now when bypassing substitutes:

Thank you for the fix, and sorry again for my mistake.
