The problem here is that this .zip file is a “tar bomb”, meaning that it
unpacks everything in the current directory, which the apply-snippet
logic isn’t prepared to deal with.

The way we’ve addressed it in the past is by using the
‘url-fetch/tarbomb’ procedure defined in (guix download).  That method
is currently limited to tarballs, so we’d need a variant that deals with
zip files (see patch below).

If ‘url-fetch/zipbomb’ from the patch below works for you, I’ll apply
it.

Thanks!

Ludo’.
