This sure is a good first patch. Since I had only nitpicks to write,
I applied it directly. Thank you!

I wrote below what small changes I made to your package definition.

We don't usually insert commit hashes here, but rather bind hash to
`commit' and put (commit commit) above.

I a comment, I also mentioned the commit was actually a version bump,
which is the reason why there is no revision number.

Nitpick: native inputs are usually listed after arguments.

Since you don't use `output' key, (lambda _ ...) is sufficient.

Nitpick: I think a better indentation is:

  (install-file "beframe.info"
                (string-append #$output "/share/info"))

In Texinfo, double quotes are ``...'', not "...".

Hello wonderful maintainer(s) of Guix,

Jamie Cullen here. This is my first ever patch, first ever commit, first 
ever packaged package, first ever time doing anything mildly useful with 
Git, etc etc. Excitement is tantamount here.

Please don't hesitate to tell me about even the smallest modification on 
my side, and any length of an explanation here via mail. I'm ready to 
put the work in to get this lovely package right. At all times during 
the packaging process, I was vascillating between understanding 20-80% 
of what I was doing.

We got there though, and everything seems to be passing the tests.

I couldn't check "guix edit", I think because my EDITOR environment 
variable wasn't set up properly. I messed with it for ten minutes, it 
wouldn't work, but I'm pretty sure it was just a thing on my side and 
that the package is fine, because all other tests looked good -- after 
loads of faffing around of course, and carefully developing a loving 
relationship with the generous error messages being thrown at me :)

Thanks so much for all your work, you people are legends. I love Guix, 
and can see worlds opening up to me. Keep up the good fight.

Jamie
