Thanks, did that.

I tried it in a pure shell and apart from the usual missing icons, it
launched fine.  Closing.

Hi there,

I've just tried to install mcomix on Guix System, but have had no luck
running it.

Upon installing and trying to run it in the shell, it fails with:

> [MainThread] ERROR: You do not have the required versions of GTK+ 3.0 installed.

Does GTK need to be added to its inputs?
