-(define util-linux/fixed
+;; The patch 'util-linux-CVE-2018-7738.patch' fixes a security bug in
+;; the Bash completions for `mount`. Since this bug doesn't affect
+;; other programs that link against libraries from util-linux, we don't
+;; need to use a graft to make the fix available. Instead, users
+;; installing util-linux will get the fix in this newer version, and
+;; (@ (gnu system) %base-packages) takes care to use this package.
+;; This solution was suggested here:
+;; <https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30827#13>
