Hello,

This patch has gone stale, sorry about that.

Can you rebase it on 'master'?

The line breaks here are unnecessary.

Please use two spaces between sentences, as suggested by 'guix lint'.

I don't see any files mentioning 'GPL 2 only', so this should probably
be 'gpl2+', i.e. "GPL 2 or any later version".

Can you send an updated patch?  Thanks in advance.  :-)
