Well, I do not understand what is happening. To check whether the problem was solved, I wanted to verify that it was still present before the update, and tried to build a new package (ddrescue). What shall I say, it was downloaded correctly before updating my git repository!

After updating, things still do not work, which makes sense, since the new bootstrap binaries are not yet downloaded:

However, I can execute

guix-download http://www.fdn.fr/~lcourtes/software/guix/packages/x86_64-linux/20130105/gcc-4.7.2.tar.xz

(as well as for all other packages), and then start a build.

How come that "guix-download" does work, but the same download fails through "guix-build"?
