Hello Guix!

The first release candidate for Guix 1.5.0 is now available for testing!

Unfortunately we didn't manage to obtain access to alpha.gnu.org in
time, so the artefacts are now hosted on Rutherther's VPS and domain.

This release, system artefacts are available not only for x86_64, but
also for AArch64! This is because AArch64 is also one of the primary
architectures. Since this is the first release with AArch64 system
artefacts, it's especially important for us to get feedback on those.
They should boot even on physical hardware that has UEFI and a display.

Some of the artefacts have been built by CI, you may prefer to download
them from there, see <https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/2116258>.

You can help by using any of the provided artefacts and reporting any
bugs and thoughts on [email protected] or the Codeberg issue
tracker[2].

The previously linked artefacts with `mirror` in the URI are from CI,
just mirrored, while the ones with `ruther` in the URI were built by
Rutherther's own devices, with help of substitutes from both Berlin and
Bordeaux. Namely, the CI didn't manage to build for ARM nor RiscV64,
yet. And we don't expect it will manage to build these soon.

Happy year-end celebrities :)
Noé Lopez and Rutherther
