FWIW, that reads to me like: "this program is extremely brittle and
unfit for distribution in any distro - here, take our blob instead"

perhaps guix is in a unique position to accommodate such constrained
dependency requirements; but such caveat warnings are indicative of a
project that is still in the beta stage, so i would not be very eager to
package it
