That's great!

I guess I ran into this because I was using `guix build` with 
`--no-substitutes`. Is it expected that we don't fallback to disarchive 
and Software Heritage in that case? If so, I guess my problem was an 
operator error. Can we close this ticket then, or are we still missing the 
tarballs for the older releases?

Best,
Jack
