But the following packages in slink do depend on libguile3:

egon, tsiag, xpw, xsiag (Yann Dirson)
scwm (Francesco Tapparo)
tguile1.3 (Karl M. Hegbloom)

The package guile1.3-doc refers to "libguile3" in its description.

Please take care of this, so that libguile3 can indeed be removed from
the archive.
