Hopefully that's not the case... >=20 The installer requires additional software to be downloaded. I have not checked to see if this is actually the case, but it seems likely that there is an intersection between the set of packages required to be downloaded at install time, the set of packages whose binaries were lost in the Hydra failure, the set of packages affected by the Sourceforge URL issue, and the set of packages whose hashes have changed since GuixSD 0.10.0 was released. If that is the case, then there exists a package P such that: -The installer requires P to proceed. -Hydra does not have the binary for P (it is silently ignoring bad URLs).= -The '--fallback' option for 'guix system init' will not work because of the bad URLs. (although I think the intent was for users to not have to use that anyway) If my concern is based on accurate understanding, I would be willing to test it. I was about to reinstall GuixSD on metal for unrelated reasons.= -Ethan Day --7w4SU0nPux4k8dU4FF2UqBDvdBpr70APL Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJXjwH9AAoJEDSQ1AzyoFAjzVQP/3JY1gZDVV43j4LCgXzLRjEr VWk1hTCqFXWlMPOU4ob0fS3r9ukWN1G1Fo+MU8jrEG93ofgwU41be9eXk/7adkQD j7waMcJ6QzGea8RNYohd0ykt5AuE4108gwokGXa9o/dTwZEp9RALNXQNsrrWN08q znLMV2Y6YgSYPs+3IlFdG3BO0h1K1DDn98XMbOpsESXrLOtIWB8lSYUj5bedQC8K ksJ5G+LXDQIr2Hc4ZDfp36yk7ag5oG2tYaxMi3L4c2qyepOUIVRL8y39odmYbpaq vg58wWOtQU87TErxNWICdKuvC4bcA/I1htM0prXyN28ODiLU+9KZNufIY/TfobmW HTvQ5lO/is3PdAVsTOyVkG7N8gGAlh1U6u2o2X3H8eJF7Wjx8NAu8I3cvnxU8vw1 H48P7eMOhc6pRSBV7XsFh396ivBzd4yJnePfARAInLS5+9TcMFhTTdoJLN4ObxlX nNocD3Eqwx5+ejH8tPQ3lcvfz2HEU+EamwpYkuD2+2+03VlIORJhk6iELoOgjn0f CC+A0CGiGc+H0DI4fl40au5oV1nJ8tzS5ZgQ2Zqg5qSs6MYDn7sVd4Z46SU8F9Hs 5qxe1Ckfqntziwyimx8EVSLnveyRKVcQ9yS52kPHgFXZ9KMviMWk1cDy362FdwRG ERF3Ox8B0evGDmAmJYys =6ebi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --7w4SU0nPux4k8dU4FF2UqBDvdBpr70APL--
