Thanks for this! I've applied it with some minor changes, described

Bash behaves differently based on whether it's invoked as 'bash' or
'sh', so I changed this to (which "sh") to be safe.

We try to avoid terms like "open source" or "free software" since it's
implied in the context of Guix.

I took inspiration from Debians description of this package and tweaked
it a little.

The files do not mention whether it's 2.1 only or later versions so we
default to "or later". Also found a few files with other licenses.
