Hi Alex,
(Cc’ing <https://bugs.gnu.org/32022> and <https://bugs.gnu.org/26608>,
which are related.)

I just had a bright idea (yes!): this can be addressed by writing
something like this in ~/.config/guix/channels.scm:
(map latest-commit-with-substitutes-available
%default-channels)
The hypothetical ‘latest-commit-with-substitutes-available’ would use
(git) and (guix ci) to find the latest commit for which substitutes of
interest are available, and would return:
(channel
;; …
(commit "cabbag3")) ;the ideal commit
This has to be done with great care to prevent a downgrade attack and to
make sure the user doesn’t miss out on security updates, but maybe we
could provide a procedure that makes reasonable choices.
Food for thought…
Ludo’.
