Hi,

Sorry for the very late reply.  Thanks for the report.

More than often, this error is transient.  I guess “guix pull” passed
when you ran it again, right?

Somehow, after the failure, running:

  guix pull --commit=3f171587bc6a47bb056f3e699e17e05f5832aea5

makes it pass, most of the time.

Well, I’m in favor to close it.  WDYT?

Cheers,
simon
