I don't have any strong opinions here. But if somebody feels that we really cannot have this program in Guix, then go ahead and revert it.
In the meantime I will try to contact the authors and ask for clarification.
However
since the project has been inactive for the last 13 years, I don't hold too
much
hope of getting a reply.

Actually, unrarlib is dual-licensed, so it is possible to use it within
a proprietary program (see http://www.unrarlib.org/license.html).
But I'll trust you that COPYING is enough :) Sorry for bothering you
then.
