Well, it’s weird that many people have often connectivity issues with
ci.guix.gnu.org.  I mean, yes a retry usually makes it pass but as
reported in this thread:

    collection of “guix pull“ bug reports

all these failures with “guix pull“ look like the symptom with something
unexpected on server side.  Although obviously we can tweak on client
side for some automatic retries.

These transient failures are very hard to tackle because they are
transient. :-)
