I got a substitute for the tarball:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

$ guix hash $(guix build 
"/gnu/store/svcwny2aw005mgyz7fsnm8m7v612q9d4-fossil-src-2.17.tar.gz.drv")

Alternatively, we can get it via the content-addressed endpoint:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ wget -qO- 
https://ci.guix.gnu.org/file/fossil-src-2.17.tar.gz/sha256/1gvx6xzrw1a8snlq9qmr6099r44ifghg0h0fw4jazqmmyxriqzsw
 |guix hash -
1gvx6xzrw1a8snlq9qmr6099r44ifghg0h0fw4jazqmmyxriqzsw
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Last, Disarchive tarball metadata is available:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ wget -qO- https://disarchive.guix.gnu.org/sha256/$(guix hash -f hex $(guix 
build 
"/gnu/store/svcwny2aw005mgyz7fsnm8m7v612q9d4-fossil-src-2.17.tar.gz.drv")) |head

|grep swhid
                        (swhid 
"swh:1:dir:1d10cd5c9e0afaf7c95fa87cd50d4b6b13e6c6c9"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

… and tarball content is in Software Heritage:

  
https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/directory/1d10cd5c9e0afaf7c95fa87cd50d4b6b13e6c6c9/

So we’re doing OK: it’s definitely archived and won’t ever vanish!  :-)
