Hi Guix,
I wonder if Winetricks (https://wiki.winehq.org/Winetricks) meets the
FSDG and can be packaged in Guix. It's LGPL, but might be considered as
way of promoting binary blobs.
Thoughts?

If it does not include or link to non free stuff I guess its fine.

If Winetricks is what I think it is, it's literally a vast
collection of one-click links to install and configure mostly
non-free software:
https://www.howtoforge.com/images/how_to_use_winetricks/big/5.png
That image alone probably settles it…
Kind regards,

While I don’t know yet what the decision for Winetricks should be, I’d
like to note that this is not how we make this decision. It is not
sufficient for a package to not include or link to non-free software,
but it is true that this is one of the requirements.
