Because the gtk-xfce-engine from xfce.scm doesn't need this I thought that this is the case for these engines, too. But really, I don't know how this is handled. If I install the package to my profile, which is included in the GUIX_GTK2_PATH, they are found by Gtk+. And, as I'm still not familiar with git send-email, the gtk-engines patch needs to be applied first (if it's okay so). Fabian
