guile-2.2 is in Debian testing and unstable, though guile-2.0 is in
stable, testing and unstable. For upload to Debian, it would probably be
best to use the newest guile version available, unless there's a
compelling reason to use guile-2.0, or possibly work the package to
support both guile-2.2 and guile-2.0.
