Hello,

sorry for the vague title; it looks as if one of the recent commits broke the
daemon for me.

This is with commit 23d60ba65c137abf472a25db7317154abfc4af4d, and I also just
reconfigured my system to profit from the most recent updates to the daemon,
which would allow me to drop typing the "--substitute-urls=..." over and over
again.

If I understood the commit messages correctly, a mirror should be used instead
of the above https://hydra.gnu.org.

Even "./pre-inst-env guix system reconfigure ... --no-substitutes" is broken
with the same message, even after doing a ./bootstrap and complete
recompilation.

Time to go back to a previous system...

This looks like the same error as in <http://bugs.gnu.org/22937>, which
I am also getting when I try to fetch substitutes over https.

Indeed.  Commit df061d079b50111280aa7209b3b3c4cf21fde218 changes the
default substitute URLs to https.

For this to work, you need to make sure that guix-daemon is running
‘guix substitute’ with the fix for #22937.

On GuixSD, it’s a matter of reconfiguring (I updated the ‘guix-devel’
snapshot on master yesterday.)

HTH!

I see! I am always assuming that when I reconfigure, the current copy of guix
(the one from guix pull, or the one from git) is used in the resulting system
to run guix and the daemon afterwards, while in reality it is the latest guix
snapshot before that. So reconfiguring does not work unless the snapshot is
also updated.

Now to make things work in this particular case, one also needs to give
"--substitute-urls=http://..." to the "guix system reconfigure" command
to turn off https.

Adding only "--no-substitutes" is not enough; I presume this is due to the
"feature" of grafts only partially honouring this parameter, as already
discussed.

Things work for me now, thanks for the help!

However, I am still seeing this with latest git:
substitute: updating list of substitutes from 'https://hydra.gnu.org'... 100.0%

Should this not be https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org?

The daemon’s default setting is to use the two URLs: first mirror.*,
then hydra.*.
