Hi,
Now that we have support for linux module packages (thanks to Danny),
can we get ZFS to work on Guix?
https://zfsonlinux.org/
Any taker?

Probably not, because ZFS and Linux use incompatible licenses. IANAL,
but my understanding is that they impose conflicting requirements on
distributors of derived works. Here are some relevant links to explain
the details:
