bug#57379: GUI toolkit for Guile 3.0?

[Lee Thomas]

I can confirm that disabling grafts allows both of the g-golf examples to run, and they come up quickly. I suspect they were slow due to something in the grafts; I'll find out. I still get some errors, but they also appear to be related to guix. I'll read the discussion.

Thank you, Ricardo!

Turns out that it all works fine when you disable grafts:

  guix shell --pure --no-grafts \
    guile guile-g-golf gtk@4

This echoes a discussion here:

The immediate lessons from the observations detailed in this issue are
also why guile-gi works without disabling grafts.
