Hi!
I am not sure this will help you, but here is what I observed and what
works best for me:
* For running Guile programs use: `guile -L <root dir of project>
<path to scm file>`.
* For using libraries:
o If Guile is installed via GUIX, try to install the library
through GUIX as well, then it should be available for Guile.
o If Guile is installed via GUIX, but the library is not on GUIX
or not in the version you would like, create a directory
somewhere and set the Guile load path for that directory.
o If Guile is built and installed by yourself also use Guile load
path.
* Modules need to be named the same as the directories they are in to
be found:
o To use (use-modules (some mymodule)) the module should be in a
directory `some` and a file `mymodule.scm`.
o To use (use-modules (some)), the module should be in a file
named `some.scm`.
Perhaps the Guile load path varies on different systems?
