Hi,
Commit 2207f73 changes the substituter to provide feedback when
hydra.gnu.org is unresponsive, which happens from time to time (the Nix
folks did a similar trick recently.)
If an HTTP GET hasn’t completed after 3 seconds, it prints a message
saying that the server is unresponsive and hinting at --no-substitutes.
This is better than having ‘guix build’ or ‘guix package’ sit here
without saying a word of what’s going on.
Comments and tests welcome, esp. from Guile 2.0.5 users!
Ludo’.
