I'm missing the following packages in Guix.  If no one has planned to
package them yet, I'll give it a go.

fortune:        The Fortune Cookie Program from BSD games
Upstream URL:   http://www.shlomifish.org/open-source/projects/fortune-mod/

gifsicle:       A powerful command-line program for creating, editing, 
manipulating and getting information about GIF images and animations
Upstream URL:   http://www.lcdf.org/gifsicle/

inxi:   script to get system information
Upstream URL:   https://github.com/smxi/inxi

uncrustify:     A source code beautifier
Upstream URL:   http://uncrustify.sourceforge.net/

Description:    The RAR uncompression program
Upstream URL:   http://www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm
(Not sure about the licensing of this one: does not look free.  Is there
any free way to extract RAR?)

vsftp:  Very Secure FTP daemon
Upstream URL:   https://security.appspot.com/vsftpd.html
(It seems that there is not a single FTP server on Guix.  Strange... Can anyone
recommend anything better than vsftp for file sharing?  Not necessarily
FTP.)

xss-lock:       Use external locker as X screen saver
Upstream URL:   https://bitbucket.org/raymonad/xss-lock
