Hello FLorian,


I think you are experiencing a different (related) issue because the 
problem I seems to vanish by linking to the glib that is used by g-golf 
instead (the --no-grafts options ensures that only one glib is in my 
guix shell)

The problem i am seeing is still available in 
08e0144d2338c8fb51e52e74274554583d0faa69.


Here is what I've been playing around with:
a simple c file that just loads a scm file.
a simple scm file that just tries to instantiate a gobject class (in 
this example from json-glib but that is irrelevant, using something 
small and simple)

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
main.c:
#include <libguile.h>

int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
    scm_init_guile();
    scm_c_primitive_load("foo.scm");
}

foo.scm:
(use-modules (g-golf))

(gi-import "Json")

(describe (make <json-parser>
	    #:immutable #t))


Build with
gcc -o main main.c \
    `pkg-config --cflags --libs guile-3.0` \
    `pkg-config --cflags --libs gobject-2.0`

Running this with grafts:
 ./main

(process:3071): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 08:50:36.946: 
g_object_new_is_valid_property: object class 'JsonParser' has no 
property named 'immutable'
#<<json-parser> 7f186b2f56d0> is an instance of class <json-parser>
Slots are:
     g-inst = #<pointer 0x1445e900>

(process:3071): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 08:50:36.947: 
g_object_get_is_valid_property: object class 'JsonParser' has no 
property named 'immutable'

(process:3071): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 08:50:36.947: 
g_object_get_is_valid_property: object class 'JsonParser' has no 
property named 'immutable'
     immutable = #f

When not linking to gobject , using no-grafts or running directly from 
guile repl things work as I would expect:
./main
#<<json-parser> 7ff2471f1d20> is an instance of class <json-parser>
Slots are:
     g-inst = #<pointer 0x2bbbe920>
     immutable = #t
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

On 08e0144d2338c8fb51e52e74274554583d0faa69 a similar problem exists:
g-golf depends on the ungrafted out output of hidden glib
but full glib is getting grafted (because of other other outputs)



If I prepend the glib with the single output graft to pkgconfig path and 
rebuild (s.t. my c prgram is linked to the same glib that is used by 
g-golf) things start magically working again.

There might be an even bigger issue here?


However regardless of it causing issues I think having 2 different 
grafted glibs (or rather anything) is not really great.

Have nice day,
