On the =E2=80=98core-updates=E2=80=99 branch, these four files are now down=
loaded as
needed (they are =E2=80=9Cfixed-output derivations=E2=80=9D at the bottom o=
f the
dependency graph):

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?h=3Dcore-updates&id=3D=
836a85da0e8609d40716581be00802ee43463038

The binaries are gone from that branch.

It may be weeks before it=E2=80=99s merged to master, but we=E2=80=99re mak=
ing progress!

Ludo=E2=80=99.
