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 "...".
