xd1le f1b7d0a54f guile-gnome: fix build by building gwrap with guile-2.0
Apparently gwrap will not compile with guile-2.2 [1], even though the
news for version 1.9.15 says it "allows" Guile 2.2 [2]:

> it will _not_ compile using 2.2

Furthermore, it seems like it isn't being developed anymore either [1]:

> Also note that g-wrap itself is not being further developed anymore,
> it is recommended for new projects to use Guile's dynamic FFI.

Also, guile-gnome-2.16.5 is apparently compatible with guile-2.2 [3],
but I'm not sure how they built it with guile-2.2 because gwrap 1.9.15
(latest release) apparently doesn't build with guile-2.2. (And certainly
when I try to build gwrap 1.9.15 with guile-2.2 it doesn't work. Maybe
it can be made to work with certain compile flags, but I haven't pursued
that further due to [1] anyway.) This is why guile-gnome is still on
2.16.4 here. Because, although 2.16.5 can still (apparently) build with
guile-2.0.14, guile_2_0 is only at guile-2.0.13.

So to update guile-gnome to 2.16.5, guile_2_0 would first have to be
updated to 2.0.14.

Build Status Code Triagers Badge

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.03 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
