I pushed a couple of commits: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commit;h=39b94fee4304d56babf5bd62e10c5786a79f4389 http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commit;h=a89cafc0562942680db63fe8ddf89f466ba2f7af I don't feel totally sure about -AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([.]) +AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([../build-aux]) because of crossing the implied boundary between the guile-readline subdistro and the main guile distro; but it seems to work, and to be consistent with how the Autoconf manual says AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR should be used. And a few other queries: - Should we have AC_LIB_LINKFLAGS(ltdl) too, to provide similar handling and searching for libltdl? - Is the new README text correct that Guile depends on libiconv and libintl? i.e. is it impossible for Guile to build without these? (If so, the "Required External Packages" section of README should be updated to mention these too.) - Any comments on or improvements to the new README text? Thanks, Neil
