Hello Guix!

Based on the mail-list thread "https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-
guix/2019-05/msg00124.html", it appears that there is a bug, where some
GNOME Core Applications are actually packaged in guix but have not been
included in guix's "gnome" package.

So I did [guix search "gnome-*"] and cross-checked the results with
guix's gnome package source (https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git
/tree/gnu/packages/gnome.scm?id=v0.16.0-5851-g5f83b5153a#n6422); and
found out that the following gnome core application packages are indeed
packaged in guix, but have not been included in guix's gnome package. 

gnome-calendar
gnome-clocks
gnome-common
gnome-desktop
gnome-dictionary
gnome-doc-utils
gnome-icon-theme
gnome-klotski
gnome-maps
gnome-mime-data
gnome-mines
gnome-mpv
gnome-planner
gnome-screenshot
gnome-shell-extensions
gnome-sudoku
gnome-todo
gnome-tweak-tool
gnome-vfs
gnome-video-effects

The following gnome core applications are also already packaged in guix
but requires correct renaming before adding to guix's gnome package?

rhythmbox --> gnome-music
shotwell --> gnome-photos

The following gnome core applications have already been included in
guix's gnome package but requires correct renaming?

epiphany --> gnome-web
envice --> gnome-documents
eog --> gnome-images
file-roller --> gnome-autoar
gedit --> gnome-text
nautilus --> gnome-files

I really hope if the above modifications are made, it will fulfill the
actual description of guix's gnome package (http://guix.gnu.org/package
s/gnome-3.28.2/). ☺

Thank you!

Regards,
RG.
