With narinfo caching people were starting to get 404s for
mirror.hydra.gnu.org/guix/nar/xyz.  Based on an incomplete log of the
command above, I’ve repopulated /var/cache/guix/publish/none on
hydra.gnu.org in a pretty crude way:

  for i in $(sed -es/'^removed `\([^-]\+\)-.*/\1/g' < /tmp/file-list ); do wget 
-q -O /dev/null http://localhost:9999/$i.narinfo || echo $i ; done

That’s 1,135 tarballs back in /var/cache/guix/publish/none.

The remaining missing items will come back eventually as narinfo
requests hit ‘guix publish’ itself (i.e., when narinfo caches on user
machines and in nginx have expired).
