I had to read this line a couple of times before I interpreted it 
properly (likely because I'm not a native English speaker). So just for 
clarity I'll rephrase it:
The fact that your distro builds gnucash against guile 2 should be 
considered a packaging bug in your distro. GnuCash may build fine, but 
it doesn't run when using guile 2. For GnuCash to work, it needs either 
guile 1.6 or 1.8. Since 1.6 is pretty old, guile 1.8 is currently 
recommended.
