The most likely culprit is that guile is using the slib
that was installed with umb-scheme. The way to fix this
is to change the link 'slib' in /usr/share/guile to
point to the directory where you have installed slib2c7.
After that, run (as root)
guile -c "(use-modules (ice-9 slib)) (require 'new-catalog)"
Hopefully, that should fix things.
