Frustrating, but a good outcome. ;-)
It could be that the thing was using http://hydra.gnu.org, and that this
server was overloaded and dropped the connection, or something.
In 0.10.0 we switched the default substitute server to
https://mirror.hydra.gnu.org, a mirror that is much faster than
hydra.gnu.org.
If you reconfigure GuixSD from a recent Guix, GuixSD’s guix-daemon
service will use mirror.hydra.gnu.org.
Thanks,
Ludo’.
