Dear,
Using this version of Guix:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix 403d9fa
repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
branch: master
commit: 403d9fae791bd22b4e2da5e90ad273755de26dc5
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
then running "guix package -i emacs" downloads all it needs.
The network wire is then unplugged and running again "guix package -i
emacs" works as expected, i.e., shows the message saying "nothing to
be done".
Considering it is an old bug, the initial reporter is not reachable
and the bug is not reproducible, I am closing it.
Please feel free to reopen it if you hit again this bug.
All the best,
simon
