bug#47202: Guix Pull Error

I had this same issue, I suggest trying to cause the previous commit to pull from, 'guix pull --commit=728c908' (the number will be different for future readers.) keep in mind that this is not the best solution, it could be a security risk, but it's the fastest until a official fix is issued.

I am not able to reproduce.  The command:

   guix pull --commit=15423d38c5 -p /tmp/1542

passes.  Idem with time-machine.

Could you retry the command?  The one above and report?


Thanks,
simon

I think the system was broken, and I have since deleted the VM. This is likely not a bug and can probably be dropped.
 Sorry for the inconvenience.

For what it is worth now the VM has been deleted: the backtrace
is in the HTTP code of the substituter, which has some known
but tricky to identify and fix issues.  The work-around usually
is to run  "guix pull" again.  (Or "guix build", "guix install",
"guix system reconfigure" ...)

So, likely not a broken system, but rather a known issue in guix
that can be worked-around by retrying the command.

In the future, please include the commit of the guix daemon,
as that's were the substitution code is.

Thanks (& closing),
Maxime
