Guix seems to be building everything from source, which can take a while. As
per these instructions I tried# cd [prefix]/share/guix/hydra.gnu.org.pub
# guix archive --authorize < hydra.gnu.org.puband got
guile: warning: failed to install locale
warning: failed to install locale: Invalid argument
with no other output. I get that error almost every time I try to do
something with Guix and it usually works anyway. Since I got no other errors
I just kept going with$ guix build emacs --dry-run and got "The following
derivations would be built:" so apparently it did not work.
During an installation I do see a lot of "updating list of substitutes"
messages, but I also frequently see the word "build" and a lot of .c and .h
files go by, which combined with the long installation time makes me doubt
that it is actually downloading binaries from the substitutes and installing
them.
