I'd re-format this to wrap at <= 80 characters. I'm old.

The two lines above should be indented with a single space:

  (sha256
   (base32
    ("0foobar..."

In a properly configured™ Emacs editor, hitting C-M-q at the start of
the package expression will do the Right Thing.

Missing space before ,ncurses. Does this compile? If so, cool.

(It does!)

In the spirit of section 6.7.4 of the Guix manual, I'd shorten this to

   (synopsis "Editor, viewer, and analyzer for executable files")

s/This program/ht/

Spurious newline:

  $ git am ~/this
  Applying: gnu: Add ht.
  .git/rebase-apply/patch:39: new blank line at EOF.
  warning: 1 line adds whitespace errors.

All in all trivial things! I'll leave a day or so for other reviewers.
You can submit a new patch if you like, or I can make the changes myself
when I push.

Kind regards,
