Todor,

Todor Kondić 写道:
A simple `guix pull'

outputs the following,

Updating channel 'eci-pkg-menu' from Git repository at 'https://git-r3lab.uni.lu/eci/eci-pkg-menu.git'... Updating channel 'guix' from Git repository at 'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git'...
guix pull: error: Git error: unexpected HTTP status code: 502


and dies.

This is a known issue. Savannah (which hosts the guix git repository used by ‘guix pull’) has been under attack for a week[0]. If you have or create a Savannah account, you can clone over SSH to bypass the overloaded HTTP proxies although guix pull --url= doesn't support that directly.

If that's not possible, retrying ‘guix pull’ a few times tends to succeed after a few times.

Guix will probably host a git mirror in future to mitigate attacks like these, assuming nobody attacks us directly. We're a lot more vulnerable than Savannah.

Kind regards,

T G-R
