I think there are several things going on. First, unlike me, you don’t get redirected to a mirror where things just work.
Then there’s this: > `http://citylan.dl.sourceforge.net/project/libusb/libusb-1.0/libusb-1.0.9/libusb-1.0.9.tar.bz2'... > ERROR: Throw to key `bad-response' with args `("EOF while reading > response body: ~a bytes of ~a" (12731 421971))'. I can reproduce that problem, and this may well be a Guile bug related to partial responses, which you linked to earlier. > starting download of `guix-download.CmTclR' from > `http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/libusb/libusb-1.0/libusb-1.0.9/libusb-1.0.9.tar.bz2'... > > Then it hangs. I can reproduce that one too. Here wget fails instantly with “No route to host”, whereas (web client) is stuck like this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- scheme@(guile-user)> (http-get (string->uri "http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/libusb/libusb-1.0/libusb-1.0.9/libusb-1.0.9.tar.bz2";)) ^CERROR: In procedure scm-error: ERROR: User interrupt Entering a new prompt.
