Yep, it's pretty explicit, and I agree that it's an unreasonable 
restriction that makes the software non-free.

Wow, you weren't kidding.  Of the 1145(!) or 63 MiB(!) of files, 
literally not one is source code.

At best, the archive contains 3 ‘text’ files: one with only 
numbers, one with only asterisks, and one with only blank lines.

I didn't check these, but I believe you if you say they're just as 
bad.

I see no way to keep these in Guix.

Thanks!
