+@file{.sh} file name extension.  @code{etc-bashrc-d-service-type} is now used
+instead of skeleton files to provision the Guix-provided Bash
+aliases (@file{/etc/bashrc.d/aliases.sh}).  It is also used to configure the
+@code{bash-completion} package, by provisioning
+@file{/etc/bashrc.d/bash_completion.sh}.  If your @code{operating-system}
+configuration does not include the @code{%base-services}, you may want to add
+@code{(service etc-bashrc-d-service-type)} to your services, so Bash
+completion will continue working for new users.  See (info \"(guix) Service
+Reference\") for extra information and examples.")))
