Subject: [bug#75782] [PATCH cuirass v2] remote-server: Disable url-fetch* fallback when triggering substitutes.
Date: Thu, 13 Feb 2025 17:17:07 +0100

If an output is larger than the configured cache bypass threshold and the
substitute hasn't already been baked, guix publish returns a 404 response and
schedules baking.  This error code causes `url-fetch*' to instead try fetching
the narinfo from the Internet Archive.  Suppress this fallback behaviour as
the sole purpose is triggering the baking of substitutes.

* src/cuirass/scripts/remote-server.scm (trigger-substitutes-baking): Disable
all download methods except "upstream" before calling `url-fetch*'.
---

Changes since v1:
  - bind `%download-methods' to '(upstream) instead of the empty list
