Hi,

I'm on GuixSD, 64-bit.  guix --version tells me I'm on revision 
afbf9763faf231c27ef25315d4d24379e1762568 (I last pulled on Jan 1).  
Guix weather reports 85.2% substitutes available, but then when I run 
'guix package' with that manifest, I find myself building 
(bootstrap?) binutils, glib, and multiple versions of gcc.  It 
doesn't even seem to look for substitutes (?):

$ guix package --manifest=config/manifest.scm
installing new manifest from 'config/manifest.scm' with 62 entries
building

[...]

Strangely, I *do* get substitutes when I specify 
--substitute-urls=https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org.

What substitute server is currently recommended?  Or what could be 
wrong with my setup that I'm not finding these substitutes 
automatically?

Thomas
