No, this is not what I am saying.
'guix build -S' does already provide a patched version of the tarball
without the non-free stuff. So the user can't install non-free code
accidentally. IIRC This behavior was introduced to comply with FSDG in
order to make GuixSD a fully free distro.
My point is that if we are giving a direct link to the non-patched
source in our UI, the FSDG issue is the same.
Sorry if I was unclear.
