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.

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.
