Nice.  Applied with the attached changes.  The description you proposed
had too many superlatives ;-) (see
<https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Synopses-and-Descriptions.html>)
so I wrote something based on their ‘README’  file.  Note the “+” in the
license, meaning “version 2 or any later version at the user’s option”
as specified in source file headers.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
