Running on all the public build farms I am aware of, I get: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- guix weather ghc-memory -s i686-linux --substitute-urls="https://ci.guix.gnu.org https://bayfront.guix.gnu.org https://guix.cbaines.net https://guix.tobias.gr https://builds.guix-patches.cbaines.net" computing 1 package derivations for i686-linux...

Well, a second data point is still crude. > Thanks again for working through these old bugs, Simon. It is a pleasure, or at least a fun mean to be more familiar with Guix. :-) All the best, simon
