That sucks.  I hope Debian finds a good solution to the problem of programs
that have optional dependencies soon.  If the newer gnome apps require a
newer version of guile than 1.4, then I'd really like to have support for
those versions.  At the moment, it's not too convenient for me to test it
so I'll probably continue with the testing stuff I'm doing for now.  I'm
might try to port it after the next release of Scwm though (planned for
whenever I get done testing the scheme code).

Btw, the debian version of Scwm is missing the constraint solving stuff.
