Not on that build, as you requested a 'stock' GC. Now I'm testing again with parallel marking enabled... >> [luca@optimum ~/projects-by-others/guile-2.0.0/doc/example-smob]$ >> pkg-config guile-2.0 --cflags >> Package guile-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. >> Perhaps you should add the directory containing `guile-2.0.pc' >> to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable >> No package 'guile-2.0' found > > Indeed, just as you add paths to the other env vars, you need to do so > for pkg-config. > > See "Environment Variables" in the pkg-config(1) man page. I will.

Indeed. > Is it possible you modified the environment in the meantime? I didn't modify the environment, but the source of guile-config explains everything: after configuration, I see the second line of guile-config as PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/luca/usr/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH" , and I see that PKG_CONFIG_PATH is (at least part of) what you were hinting at in pkg-config(1). So, just for completeness, I'm fixing my PKG_CONFIG_PATH and testing again; this time with parallel marking on, GC version 7_2alpha5-20110107. [luca@optimum ~/projects-by-others/guile-2.0.0]$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/luca/usr/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH" [luca@optimum ~/projects-by-others/guile-2.0.0]$ cd doc/example-smob/ [luca@optimum ~/projects-by-others/guile-2.0.0/doc/example-smob]$ make cc `pkg-config guile-2.0 --cflags` -c -o image-type.o image-type.c cc `pkg-config guile-2.0 --cflags` -c -o myguile.o myguile.c cc image-type.o myguile.o `pkg-config guile-2.0 --libs` -o myguile [luca@optimum ~/projects-by-others/guile-2.0.0/doc/example-smob]$ ./myguile GNU Guile 2.0.0 Copyright (C) 1995-2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
