Now, the question is where should the fix go?  “guix publish” exposing
the narinfos or “guix weather“?  Or both?

I propose fixing all places where string-append is used to join URLs, since joining URLs is not the same as string concatenation. We might restrict our algorithm to only joining a path. <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-5.2.2> shows the complete algorithm, where this is the relevant part for only joining a path (R.path) to a base URL's path (T.path).

               if (R.path starts-with "/") then
                  T.path = remove_dot_segments(R.path);
               else
                  T.path = merge(Base.path, R.path);
                  T.path = remove_dot_segments(T.path);

(Side-node: guile module (web uri) <https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/URIs.html> seems to lack respective, easy to use functions.)
