Subject: bug#35625: Python3 Cannot Find Existing Shared Library within guix environment
Date: Tue, 7 May 2019 16:32:11 -0600

I brought this to the help mailing list, and now I see it as a
particular bug in guix. When I change into a guix environment and try
to run a Python project that uses the WebKitGTK2 library, it cannot
find the specified shared library, even though it is in $LIBRARY_PATH.
As a result, the project crashes. This does not happen when I call guix
build. On a side note, guix build fails due to another error (possibly
related).

Thanks in advance for looking into this.
