yes, that's correct

Re: hydra.gnu.org now provides substitutes for ‘guix pull’

2018-11-03 Thread Pjotr Prins 
The title is somewhat in-apt right now ;). I went through pain
today.

Even so, specifying the commit with 'guix pull' is incredibly useful
because it allows us to use our own substitutes and deploy the same
software across machines.

Now 'guix pull' itself is rather slow. Would it be possible to use
Guix pack or archive on an existing ~/.config/guix/current graph? I am
looking to quickly deploy guix itself as binary blobs too. 

Any idea of what could work? Maybe I should just do a 

  ~/.config/guix/current/bin/guix package -i guix -p ~/opt/guix

and copy that profile. It should contain the exact same package tree,
right?

[Post Installation]: Unable to guix pull

2018-11-03 Thread rohit yadav 
Hi,

After installing the guix on my ubuntu workstation. I am finding the
following error when trying to install guix-locales. Apparently, the
https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org returns 504 . I am not sure if the server is
down or something else is wrong.

#+begin_log
substitute: guix substitute: warning: while fetching '
https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org/nix-cache-info': 504 ("Gateway Time-out")
substitute: guix substitute: warning: ignoring substitute server at '"
https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org";'
#+end_log

Thanks,
Rohit

Sorry for writing again, would someone like me to add or change anything
here?
Shall I write something in the optional questions?
Gabor said it was fine, but if you don't mind I would like to have both
opinions. And if Ricardo and Ludo want to, I am open to their suggestions
too :)
I haven't sent my application yet, and I would like to apply by Monday 5th.
I am 5 hours behind Europe, so I could be applying by your almost October
6th at 00 hs.
Regards!
Laura

Hello,

Yes, hydra is currently off-line for maintainence. You can find the
relevant thread here[0]. It was suggested to use
'https://berlin.guixsd.org' as the primary source of substitutes.

For examples, I add the following option to 'guix-daemon.service':
  --substitute-urls='https://berlin.guixsd.org https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org 
https://hydra.gnu.org'

Cheers,
Alex

Oh, I forget to mention that you also have to authorize the
'https://berlin.guixsd.org' server. You can read the "Substitute Server
Authorization" section in the guix manual for instructions.
