> Nice work! You should use guix download to get the right hash, like so: "guix download 3.12.tar.gz". You can also put the hash of another package, see it fail and it will give you the hash it got instead.

Additionally you can pass the URL directly to "guix download" so you don't have to worry about saving it to disk first or deleting it later.
