Actually, sh-script.el isn't strictly needed because it's just a
documentation patch.

Do you have something like this in your .emacs?

    (custom-set-variables
     ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
     ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
     ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
     ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
     '(sh-basic-offset 2)
     '(smie-config (quote ((sh-mode (-2 :before "then" 0))))))

If not, note that `smie-config-save' doesn't save the rules in a
persistent way, you have to save the `smie-config' variable via the
customize interface for that (this is another thing that should probably
be clarified in the docstring).

Oh right, I forgot about all the dependencies.  Well, I guess patching
directly like you've tried above is the most straightforward way.
