It’s OK if the ‘origin’ denotes a file that is not a tarball. However, the build procedure will have to pay attention for that. For instance, the default sequence of phases of ‘gnu-build-system’ includes an ‘unpack’ phase, which is inappropriate here: https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Build-Systems.html There are a couple of examples, e.g., paredit in emacs.scm. Most of them use ‘trivial-build-system’, which requires explicitly writing the build/install operations. HTH! Ludo’.
