Oops, my instructions were incorrect: ‘http_proxy’ needs to be defined in the daemon process. To test, I first run the daemon like this: sudo sh -c 'export http_proxy=foobar ; ./pre-inst-env guix-daemon --build-users-group=guixbuild' and then I run: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ ./pre-inst-env guix build -S gcc --no-substitutes accepted connection from pid 14399, user ludo La jenaj derivoj estos konstruataj: /gnu/store/s32s498y88sidfnrppsn33nfmhlacpzx-gcc-5.1.0.tar.xz.drv /gnu/store/z1n2c3hgl7w2cnz9d5szyjwwy8lp0dav-gcc-5.1.0.tar.bz2.drv @ build-started /gnu/store/z1n2c3hgl7w2cnz9d5szyjwwy8lp0dav-gcc-5.1.0.tar.bz2.drv - x86_64-linux /var/log/guix/drvs/z1//n2c3hgl7w2cnz9d5szyjwwy8lp0dav-gcc-5.1.0.tar.bz2.drv.bz2 starting download of `/gnu/store/6a3d39111w0d5n7rzb5p7aliilw0hx1l-gcc-5.1.0.tar.bz2' from `http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gcc/gcc-5.1.0/gcc-5.1.0.tar.bz2'...

Since the http URL fails, the download logic falls back to the next URL, which happens to be an ftp URL, which is unaffected by ‘http_proxy’.
