Maybe a start could be to fix: <https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/125433/dashboard>

Well, it could be helpful is Berlin or Bordeaux could build some
manifest of core-updates (not necessary the whole core-updates).  And
then, once the manifest builds, we could add some packages and repeat.

It would avoid that we all build the same things; worse, that each of us
burn many CPU just for knowing it fails.

Chris, Mathieu?  What do you think?
