In pkgsrc we are pruning gnome2 (but have mate). That's not about guile, but it is causing a hard look at things that depend on gnome2.
We have guile-gnome 2.16.5, the most recent release, released in June of 2017. I remember using something in 2004ish, but more for gtk than gnome. Our package depends on guile 2.0. I just tried to run calc.scm which I remember from the old days, but it failed, perhaps due to how we namespace multiple guile versions. I tried to find what guile-gnome has been replaced by, and remembered g-wrap, but last release was 2015 and it's a FFI. I then found guile-gtk, from 2007 which says to use guile-gnome. I found guile-cairo, from 2020 which counts as recent, but "Guile-Cairo is complete, wrapping almost all of the Cairo API." which does not seem to be "you can use this to do random gtk3 things". So: what is the current best way to do gtk3 (4?) from guile? At this point I have no need, but I like to see guile things live on, when it makes sense. But it is seeming like tilting at windmills to keep guile-gnome going. What do other packaging systems do? Debian 12 doesn't have guile-gnome but it does have guile-cairo. Greg
