I have found the equivalent on Fedora: $ yum install compat-guile18 compat-guile18-devel However, I still get the same errors. > However, most distributions only allow one _development_ version to be > installed at the same time.

If I build lilypond with both compat-guile18-devel (1.8.8) and guile-devel (2.0.9) installed, configure is fine and the build process works but I get the errors when I use lilypond. If I remove guile-devel (2.0.9) and keep only compat-guile18-devel (1.8.8), configure complains: ERROR: Please install required programs: echo no guile-config >= 1.8.2 (installed: ) I do not understand what to do. How did you say that the lilypond that comes with F19 has to use guile 1.8?
