That link gives me a page saying that fd is an umknown package
The unversioned packages.guix.gnu.org/packages/fd/ page currently shows Unknown package. The package still exists in rust-apps.scm as fd 10.4.2; link the versioned page that resolves. Co-authored-by: FirmamentalSpring <287222957+FirmaSpring@users.noreply.github.com>

Problem
The Guix install section linked to a version-pinned page
https://guix.gnu.org/en/packages/fd-8.1.1/. That URL no longer serves thepackage page; GET follows to the packages index (
https://packages.guix.gnu.org/)instead of the fd package.
