That'd be reasonable as a new package if it was very tightly developed
with telegram, but it doesn't seem to be the case.  I'd prefer having it
in (gnu packages glib).

What is the "compilation error" you had mentioned when using version
2.0?  Does the cppgir release fails to compile itself, or is it
telegram that then doesn't build using that one?

If the later, I'd define, in (gnu packages glib)

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-public cppgir
 [...]
 "original package at version 2.0")

(define-public cppgir-for-telegram-desktop
 (package
  (inherit cppgir)
  (source ... (using latest or telegram-specific (?) commit))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Sorry for the back and forth, we're narrowing down on the perfect
submission; keep it up.  Don't forget to use -v5 for your next patches
submission :-), and ensure 'guix lint' is happy with all the packages.

Thank you for your efforts!  Keep it up.
