The issue appears to be on the nonguix side, please report to them.

It's not, since it relates to code in the (guix substitutes) module.

Do you mean that if "https://substitutes.nonguix.org" is incorrectly
configured, then the code in (guix substitutes) should handle the
error instead of crash with a backtrace?

No, but to answer your question, yes.

I don't think this is a server side code/configuration issue. Also see
this older bug for the same issue https://issues.guix.gnu.org/56005

The Guile-GnuTLS change you submitted in
<https://gitlab.com/gnutls/guile/-/merge_requests/10> may well fix this
issue.

We have yet to put out a new Guile-GnuTLS release, but we should keep an
eye on it.
