Using Guix 3694c0d, the version is now 20.12.0 and
https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org provides all the substitutes.  Note that
“guix build --check” works fine too.

BTW, this

  $ guix gc -D $(guix build <pkg> -S)
  $ guix build <pkg> -S --no-substitutes

also works fine.  In my case, downloading from
<http://download.kde.org/stable/release-service/>.

Indeed the sources of 20.8.0 does not seem available upstream.
However, this version was not in Guix, AFAIK.  For instance,

  git log --grep=kigo

does not display a commit updating from 19.08.3 to 20.8.0.  The only
update is from 19.08.3 (d685f86054..f114a689e7) to 20.12.0
(908e48f7dd..3cd53b4500).  The version 19.08.3 seems removed from
upstream but we cannot do more; this source is still on ci.guix.gnu.org
and should be transparently available via Disarchive.

Well, I am in favor to close this bug.  WDYT?


All the best,
simon
