Duplicate dependencies in util-linux

[John Darrington]

When I run:  guix size util-linux | sort -n -k 3

I get:

store item                                                       total    self

This seems odd to me:

1. Why does it depend on two different version of ncurses6.0 ?
2. Why does it depend on both bash-4.4.0 and bash-static-4.4 ?
