(My OCD kicked in today...)
Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.
I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.
I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).
Some specifics worth mentioning:
* cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
description.
* ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
"exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
at the end of description.
* nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
nixos.org).
* Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
either.
This requires recent versions of aqbanking and gwenhywfar:

It seems as if the developers have changed their version numbering
scheme in 2012 and have only released versions with the "beta" suffix
since then.
See #490 discussion.

Current versions of gconftool-2 don't support the --config-source option
anymore -- that path must be passed in $GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE instead.

GnuCash attempt to call gconf binaries to register its schemas in the
system-wide database. That still doesn't work, of course, because gconf
can't update its store path. TODO. :-(

The test suite is currently disabled. There is an issue with GUILE_LOAD_PATH
that needs to be addressed before we can re-enable those tests. See comments in
the expression for further details.
