Hi Guixers,
What is Guix's answer to PyInstaller?
`guix pack --list-formats`?
https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller
I haven't reviewed all of PyInstaller yet to see where feature parity fails or differences should be noted.
On my TODO list.

I've been thinking on this for a while, mostly for windows[^1].
We could manage to generate something similar to this, but I suspect it requires a pretty heavy magic for non-python packages.
I'd love to see this happening, mostly because I have clients I'd like to be able to serve... If you want to dig on this issue, please let me know your findings. Maybe I can help!
Thanks for bringing this up!

I imagine not much magic for Common Lisp since we can produce a static binary with sbcl, etc.

Another software to compare to is PyOxidizer which is used for producing binaries that embed Python:

De nada, anytime!
