I checked the download-page and the links there are to the same server (alpha.gnu.org). Because you see a "Network unreachable" instead of a "file not found", I suppose your network does not permit FTP-connections (i.e. port 21 being blocked). As Garbor mentioned, the link to the signature is also on the download page. Here is the direct link for x86_64: https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/guix/guix-binary-0.15.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz.sig Hope that helps, Björn [-- Attachment #2: OpenPGP digital signature --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 181 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

I downloaded the key from the download site and proceeded to verify it. But the public key was required so I ran the command to retrieve it: gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 3CE464558A84FDC69DB40CFB090B11993D9AEBB5 which alas again returned the error: keyserver timed out keyserver recieve failed. I visited https://pgp.mit.edu/ to search the string 3CE464558A84FDC69DB40CFB090B11993D9AEBB5 ( I guessed this must be the string needed to be searched to extract the key) but that search returned "no such key found." I decided to proceed with the installations then, and wrote the command as root (by sudo -i ), to unpack the tarball in tmp folder: /# cd /tmp /# tar -xf guix-binary-0.9.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz And this is what it returned: tar: guix-binary-0.9.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz: Cannot open: No such file or directory I tried the same after saving the guix-binary-0.9.0.x86_64-linux.tar.xz in tmp folder but again the some result. I'm trying googling and finding solution to this for now. Any help is most welcomed.

My first guess is that there something wrong with the version number here, the version in the filename should be 0.15.0. Could you check the name of the tarball again? If after you made sure that you have the correct filename it still does not work, you might also need xz-utils (or similar) installed, so that you can extract the tarball, or you can unxz, then tar -xf, if your tar does not autodetect the compression format. > On Sat, Oct 6, 2018 at 10:53 AM Vagrant Cascadian <vagrant@debian.org> > wrote: > >> On 2018-10-05, Björn Höfling wrote: >> > On Fri, 5 Oct 2018 16:28:08 +0200 >> > Gábor Boskovits <boskovits@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> namrata malkani <nmalkani13@gmail.com> ezt írta (időpont: 2018. okt. >> >> 5., P 16:23): >> ... >> >> > But when I tried to download the .sig file, using the command >> >> > >> >> > wget >> >> > ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/guix/guix-binary-0.15.0.system.tar.xz.sig >> >> > on my terminal, it returned an error: >> >> > >> >> > Connecting to alpha.gnu.org >> >> > (alpha.gnu.org)|2001:4830:134:3::c|:21... failed: Network is >> >> > unreachable. >> > >> > I checked the download-page and the links there are to the same server >> > (alpha.gnu.org).
