But if someone need the source, my understanding is that one can just use guix  
build -S 
or some other command to retrieve them.
So I don't see the interest of having them too in the compiled output, as they 
are not useful for 
normal usage of the package; it seems to take up space for no reason.

Sorry to bother you with my questions, as I am new to guix.

Regards,
Matthieu Lemerre
