<tomu>Hi! I'm a long time tinkerer with GUIX and I'm interested in  packaging some structural biology tools.
<tomu>I've noticed many tools distribute data such as machine learning weights seperately to the source code, whats the correct way of building and installing such tools in guix where the derived tool is a function of the source code and a data package?
<flypaper-ultimat>tomu: there was a discussion on the mailing list about it, but dont think a consensus was reached https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2023-04/msg00015.html
