;;; Commentary:
;;;
;;; Many Guix contributors have a tendency to update packages in this
;;; way: they only update the package revision and then launch a build
;;; that fails just to make Guix tell them the right base32 hash. They
;;; then update the base32 hash and launch the build again.
;;;
;;; However some ZIM files are quite big. At the time of writing,
;;; wikipedia_en_all_maxi_2022-05.zim is about 89 GiB.
;;;
;;; So this approach will be time consuming as the second time Guix
;;; will restart downloading the same file from scratch.
;;;
;;; The solution to this issue is to download the sha256sums (for that
;;; simply append .sha256 to the URL of the ZIM file). It will give a
;;; file like that:
;;; f12163513307893c87fd75009b1d61677bae675627eaadf4cb0fa63953eea021  wikipedia_en_all_maxi_2022-05.zim
;;;
;;; You can then use this hash to compute the base32 with nix-hash:
;;; $ nix-hash --type sha256 --to-base32 \
;;; f12163513307893c87fd75009b1d61677bae675627eaadf4cb0fa63953eea021
