Hi,
can anybody more skilled than me please implement some HTTP(s) updater,
so we can "refresh" directly from downloads.kde.org. Please apologize,
if there already is one, I did not spot one.
Yesterday KDE released an security update, which was available at
downloads.kde.org at 05:38 GMT. When I tried updating the packages
("guix refresh") at about 18:30 GMT, the packages have not been found.
Reasons for this is: "guix refresh --type=kde" uses
ftp://mirror.mit.edu, which obviously is lagging. This may cost us
important time in case of an emergency update. Unfortunately KDE's main
site (downloads.kd.org) is only accessible via https, not via FTP.
