This problem has been solved, thanks to Andreas Rottmann and P. Dale Smith,
many
thanks. For the record [and other users following this list maybe], my problem
was
that I did set PKG_CONFIG=true while compiling guile. This leads to a 'broken'
guile-config script which prevents any S/W depending on Guile (unless the
S/W in question bypasses guile-config) to later correctly build itself.
In order to check that guile-config is 'ok' with respect to pkg-config, you may
do
this [depending on the location of guile-config of course]:
grep %pkg-config-program /usr/local/bin/guile-config
If you manually build 'things' you may also want to check your ACLOCAL_FLAGS
variable [once more depending on your --prefix settings at guile compile time]:
export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/share/aclocal"
Thanks for the IRC debug help and support,
Cheers,
David
