The point is that the (devel) manual is referring to some release only URLs: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guix/ The images there are only updated when a new release is out. It is not a rolling-release URL updated by the CI but a very stable URL manually updated (I guess). This URL in the manual is generated by @indicateurl{@value{BASE-URL}/guix-system-install-@value{VERSION}.x86_64-linux.iso}, where VERSION is from version.texi generated at compile-time, IIRC. The simplest is to add a warning note mentioning the issue and pointing to: https://guix.gnu.org/en/download/latest/ A more convoluted solution would to introduce another version label as RELEASE-VERSION and use it in these places in the manual.
