Fixed by simply letting it through:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix/maintenance.git/commit/?id=8859af255f4041f90f630094c6ec81227b554904
However note that it’s a 2.2 GiB file. I think it’s OK for hydra to
serve it, in particular because ‘guix publish’ does almost no processing
on that file since it’s already compressed. So the only cost is
bandwidth.
(The ‘texlive-texmf’ binary remains unavailable on hydra because it’s
marked as non-substitutable.)
Other options that came to mind were:
1. Mark the texlive-texmf source derivation as non-substitutable,
which would have required fiddling with ‘url-fetch’ to pass
#:substitutable? #f to ‘raw-derivation’. Everyone would have
downloaded from the upstream FTP site.
2. Add a ‘--hide=.*texlive-texmf*’ option to ‘guix publish’, which
would prevent it from publishing narinfos for store items that
match the regexp.
