Yep.  There is a complete path ending in "g-wrap-guile" in the g-wrap
script.  Check if the file in the path exists.  If it's not there, 
see if you can locate "g-wrap-guile" somewhere on your system, and
change the string in the g-wrap script to point to the correct file.

The g-wrap build process is supposed to set this up correctly, so
something got screwed up in building and installing g-wrap.  Where did
you get g-wrap from - did you get a package or build it yourself?
