Our requests were being redirected from HTTP -> HTTPS, so I changed the mirror URLs to use HTTPS, and then forgot I'd made that change. [0] Between tests with `curl`, `guix download`, and `guix lint --checker source`, I became confused and made that claim. But, things started to work when I reverted the mirror URL change and began updating the various package source URLs. Hopefully SourceForge does not change the URLs again. That would be extremely annoying. [0] This redirection only seems to occur for "bad" URLs.
