I did not want to reply directly to these specific bugs, which is why I
asked on this list first.

I think I can not do this, close bugs I did not create myself. If I am
wrong about this I advise that we write a short appendum for Guix
documentation (part: contributing, new subsection: reporting bugs) which
explains debbugs usage, because upstream or at least the version+online
handbook on gnu.org is simply terrible in getting to the point.

Dependencies fail on architecture I do not have available (yet / in a
forseeable future).

I think I'm okay with referencing this bug when/if I can close the
current failing test suite bug.
