I find it clearer to put the comment right below ‘propagated-inputs’.

The problem is that I don’t think it works to put an absolute file name
in the ‘Requires’ field of a ‘.pc’ file, so I don’t think we can avoid
it unfortunately.
However, since Augeas is a library, the propagated input is acceptable:
in practice, people probably won’t have it in their main environment,
but rather in a ‘guix environment’ thing, or in a dedicated development
profile.
