Yeah, the substitutes not working made my demo of installing emacs on
my Debian machine with Guix fail. The other problem was my own,
because I forgot to authorize hydra.gnu.org in the VM image I was
showing off. I guess it didn't matter in the end, because substitutes
weren't working at all. I was at least able to show them an
operating-system definition, create a VM image from it, and boot it
with qemu.

Yeah, they're really basic, but I can commit them to guix-maintenance
for good measure. Do I have commit access to that repo since I'm in
the guix group on savannah?

It was a lot of fun!
