Hello,

when trying to run eog, I get the following message:
(eog:4813): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 11:49:04.247: Settings schema 'org.gnome.desktop.thumbnailers' is not installed
Trace/breakpoint trap

Comments on help-guix in this thread:
suggest to install gsettings-desktop-schemas, and this solves the problem.

However, I would consider this a dependency error, and there is one obvious
solution, to make gsettings-desktop-schemas a propagated input of eog.
In the help-guix thread, it was also suggested to maybe wrap the call to eog.

And it is possible this would have to be done for every gnome package.

This seems resolved according to 'guix shell --pure eog -- eog', using
the latest guix available.

Closing; thanks!
