bug#63068: [PATCH] fixed apache mirrors

see above (or https://issues.guix.gnu.org/63068#6). I didn't send 
it to guix-patches@gnu.org, since I still didn't test the 
patch. Furthermore I am not sure, how a proper commit message 
looks like, when it is not related to a package (there is no 
YASnippet for that, right?).

Best Regards,
Julian
