Thank you, GNU Guix’ decisions make more sense now.  Should have checked
the license comment in “guix edit libgit2”.  So that argument is gone;
still it is not clear if copyright can even apply if we only link.

That said, the user-friendly decision for Parnikkapore would be to just
listen to Saku and Arne, because some users don’t like a murky legal
status.
