Hi znavko
Most of the packages used have prebuilt substitutes. Make sure that you have 
authorized getting substitutes from the server,

Hello, developers!

As mentioned in 'Substitutes' section of Guix Manual "The ci.guix.info server 
is a front-end to an official build farm
that builds packages from Guix continuously for some
architectures, and makes them available as substitutes."

And the roadmap contains this:
"* Features scheduled for 1.0

- larger & more robust build farm
    + we need a powerful, dedicated front-end"

Now when the users come to try, they are just seeing endless compilation 
process. And Guix looks not friendly with such an option. This is a bottle-neck.

Pre-built packages are needed. When will it be realized?

Thanks.
