I think the main problem is that some of the 0.10.0 binaries have vanished from {mirror.,}hydra.gnu.org. Thus, people installing GuixSD for the first time today have a very bad experience. We can rebuild the =E2=80=98release-0-10=E2=80=99 branch on Hydra, but of c= ourse we=E2=80=99re limited by the available resources. At any rate, Ethan: I think we=E2=80=99ll make a 0.10.1 release once we=E2= =80=99ve merge =E2=80=98core-updates=E2=80=99, which could be a week or two from now. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
