Hi, I've noticed that "guix package" fails when I specify an HTTPS endpoint for --substitute-urls. Is that expected behavior?
I recently set up a caching proxy for hydra.gnu.org. The endpoint's DNS name is hydra-mirror.marusich.info. It's configured to accept both HTTP and HTTPS requests. When it receives an HTTPS request, it proxies the request (assuming it's a cache miss) to hydra.gnu.org over HTTP. I've configured it this way because my understanding is that hydra.gnu.org is currently only available via HTTP. Commands like wget, curl, and even "guix download" work fine with the mirror, even over HTTPS. For example, the following command succeeds: guix download https://hydra-mirror.marusich.info/nar/8kvb2k0n1jqjd5sa7g6qj5qllq0ckcya-linux-libre-4.4 However, when I try to install a package with "guix package" using the endpoint, it fails with a backtrace like the following (this command was invoked using the "guix package" from commit 7b3f2682de38a8e39f052705795ec85fcdfc8a96): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ ./pre-inst-env guix package --substitute-urls="https://hydra-mirror.marusich.info"; -i graphviz substitute: Backtrace: substitute: In ice-9/boot-9.scm: substitute: 63: 19 [call-with-prompt prompt0 ...] substitute: In ice-9/eval.scm: substitute: 432: 18 [eval # #] substitute: In ice-9/boot-9.scm: substitute: 2401: 17 [save-module-excursion #<procedure 16ac940 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:4045:3 ()>] substitute: 4050: 16 [#<procedure 16ac940 at ice-9/boot-9.scm:4045:3 ()>] substitute: 1724: 15 [%start-stack load-stack ...] substitute: 1729: 14 [#<procedure 16c4ea0 ()>] substitute: In unknown file: substitute: ?: 13 [primitive-load "/gnu/store/3lg5c1nidbj0kjdz5b63hn3vp29kzf0s-guix-0.9.0.c3f29bc/bin/.guix-real"] substitute: In guix/ui.scm: substitute: 1175: 12 [run-guix-command substitute "--query"] substitute: In ice-9/boot-9.scm: substitute: 157: 11 [catch getaddrinfo-error ...] substitute: 157: 10 [catch srfi-34 #<procedure 25850a0 at guix/ui.scm:411:2 ()> ...] substitute: 157: 9 [catch system-error ...] substitute: In guix/scripts/substitute.scm: substitute: 946: 8 [#<procedure 25850c0 at guix/scripts/substitute.scm:939:3 ()>] substitute: 804: 7 [process-query "info /gnu/store/x29dbk9inqjym79q0907sx4arp1bfp28-graphviz-2.38.0-doc " ...] substitute: 633: 6 [lookup-narinfos/diverse # #] substitute: 617: 5 [lookup-narinfos "https://hydra-mirror.marusich.info"; #] substitute: 589: 4 [fetch-narinfos "https://hydra-mirror.marusich.info"; #] substitute: 222: 3 [download-cache-info "https://hydra-mirror.marusich.info";] substitute: In guix/records.scm: substitute: 331: 2 [recutils->alist #<unspecified>] substitute: In ice-9/rdelim.scm: substitute: 184: 1 [read-line #<unspecified> trim] substitute: In unknown file: substitute: ?: 0 [%read-line #<unspecified>] substitute: substitute: ERROR: In procedure %read-line: substitute: ERROR: In procedure %read-line: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting open input port): #<unspecified> guix package: error: build failed: substituter `substitute' died unexpectedly --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- When I replaced --substitute-urls="https://hydra-mirror.marusich.info"; with --substitute-urls="http://hydra-mirror.marusich.info";, the same command worked fine.
