Hello,

Looks like the gnu.org webmasters broke our redirects:

(Until now each gnu.org/software/guix page would redirect to its
guix.gnu.org counterpart.)

It’s not nice but also not completely unreasonable of them given that we
moved to guix.gnu.org years ago, so I think we should update any
remaining reference in our blog posts etc. to the new URL.

Thoughts?

No no, it’s really www.gnu.org that systematically responds with a
redirect to https://guix.gnu.org.
