The Winetricks contain non-free software, though (which additionally is unlikely to be gpl3)? E.g., one of its main uses is to install Microsoft's .NET implementation instead of Mono (this was at a time when it didn't have a free license IIRC). More contemporary, going by https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/blob/master/files/verbs/dlls.txt , it downloads many other Microsoft things -- while some of them might be free, I would expect most of them to be non-free.

To compare with another distro, in Debian, it is sorted in 'contrib'.

Also, going by a 'Re: Hostile takeover of the matrix room', you are banned. That means you aren't allowed to send messages to Guix anymore. Given there appear to be some technical problems involving debbugs, I'll try setting up a local filter.

Greetings,
Maxime.
