BTW, I’ve restarted the relevant mcron job and it’s rolling out now:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ wget -qO- https://guix.gnu.org/sources.json |jq |grep output[A-Z] | head
      "outputHashAlgo": "sha256",
      "outputHashMode": "flat"
      "outputHashAlgo": "sha256",
      "outputHashMode": "flat"
      "outputHashAlgo": "sha256",
      "outputHashMode": "recursive",
      "outputHashAlgo": "sha256",
      "outputHashMode": "flat"
      "outputHashAlgo": "sha256",
      "outputHashMode": "flat"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
