--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[albinus <at> BRONB4NHFYN1 ~]$ which guile
/usr/bin/guile
[albinus <at> BRONB4NHFYN1 ~]$ guile --version
guile (GNU Guile) 2.0.14
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Furthermore, a syntax error seems to tell something different. If it is
really true that guile 2.2 is missing, I would expect a respective error
message.

Best regards, Michael.
