I'm using ./pre-inst-env guix from commit
19a7a824c35eae56ce56e2a460042fb7e2129234. `guix refresh -u profanity`
doesn't seem to be able to find the new tarball for download. However, if
I do the update by hand, `guix build` knows how to download the tarball.
The profanity source record looks like this:

"""
(source
(origin
(method url-fetch)
(uri
(string-append
version ".tar.gz"))
(sha256
(base32
"14n45zwc6fxjargqhwqan8fyb7x0ql0hmw56rbjkjfkhpba2qmks"))))
""""

Here's refresh getting confused:

"""
$ ./pre-inst-env guix refresh -u profanity

Starting download of /tmp/guix-file.QV904d
From https:/tarballs/profanity-0.14.0.tar.gz...

"""

Best,

Hm, it seems it was a bug when using the
release-monitoring-url property and the code in import-html-release from
(guix gnu-maintenance.)

I've tested with my series at https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65230and I'm
happy to report it resolves the issue:

Toggle snippet (7 lines)
$ ./pre-inst-env guix refresh -u profanity
Starting download of /tmp/guix-file.KoCfAY
From https://profanity-im.github.io/tarballs/profanity-0.14.0.tar.gz...
….14.0.tar.gz 914KiB 3.4MiB/s 00:00 ???????????????????? 100.0%
/home/maxim/src/guix/gnu/packages/messaging.scm:2132:13: profanity: updating from version 0.13.0 to version 0.14.0...

It could do with a review :-).

I've now installed this series with commit

Closing!
