Subject: Guix (weather): there can be only one

Guix,

Two simultaneous ‘guix weather’s on the same machine will step on 
each others' toes and die.

They were running in two separate repositories, both vanilla 
sv:guix, one at v0.15.0, the other on master (7a7c91a).

Both aborted like this:

λ ./pre-inst-env guix weather 
--substitute-urls=https://munich.tobias.gr
 computing 7,850 package derivations for x86_64-linux...
 looking for 8,167 store items on https://munich.tobias.gr...
 updating substitutes from 'https://munich.tobias.gr'... 
 19.7%[my \n]
 guix weather: error: rename-file: No such file or directory

The second one displayed a different percentage and package count 
but was otherwise identical.

Kind regards,

T G-R
