Hi Simon,

Thanks for hunting.

Nope.

I mean, if the server were now "actively* serving a gigabyte-plus VM image as HTML, the issue would be much worse...

However, it's serving HTML because that URL is now a 404 status page.  The qcow2 image has been deleted.

I'm a bit surprised by that.  I somewhat assumed that releases were kept forever.

Anyway, the original issue is unchanged:

$ curl -LI https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guix/guix-system-vm-image-1.3.0.x86_64-linux.qcow2 | grep Content-Type
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff

Kind regards,

T G-R

Sent on the go.  Excuse or enjoy my brevity.
