No, this is not what I am saying. 'guix build -S' does already provide a patched version of the tarball without the non-free stuff. So the user can't install non-free code accidentally. IIRC This behavior was introduced to comply with FSDG in order to make GuixSD a fully free distro. My point is that if we are giving a direct link to the non-patched source in our UI, the FSDG issue is the same. Sorry if I was unclear. -- Mathieu Lirzin
