Subject: bug#37662: substitution failure of nss-certs
Date: Tue, 08 Oct 2019 15:18:32 +0100

After the core-updates merge today, I did the following, and it gave an
error message (I tried a couple of times, with the same result):

$ guix pull && guix package -m ~/guix-packages.scm -u .

I then did the same, but added the suggested `--fallback` option onto
the end:

$ guix package -m ~/guix-packages.scm -u . --fallback

substitution of /gnu/store/532l4zja85y9c69i0l0bwnsxx98gpzdw-nss-certs-3.45 failed

The command did then complete successfully, I assume building nss-certs
locally instead, though I can't see any further references to it in the
output.

I'm currently trying the same thing on my other computer.
