Indeed I can _install_ only one guile version at the same time system wide. But I _compiled_ the mentioned three guile-versions, which takes some time. But once compiled 'make install' is fairly fast. So my workflow is: (1) - Compile guile-1.8 from the tarball* - install it via 'make install' - build LilyPond as usual with from a git repository, I call it "lilypond-git" (2) - Compile guile-2.0.14 from the tarball - install it via 'make install' (this throws out previous installed guile)** - build LilyPond as usual with from a git repository, I call it "lilypond-git-guile-2.0.14" (3) - Compile guile-2.2 from the guile-repository - install it via 'make install' (this throws out previous installed guile)** - build LilyPond as usual with from a git repository, I call it "lilypond-git-guile-2.2" This gets me LilyPond-versions with three different guile-versions. [*] guile-1.8. from the tarball needs to be done with the configure-option: ./configure --disable-error-on-warning [**] at least I never experienced any drawback doing so There may be a way to point LilyPond to a certain guile-version without the need to install this guile system-wide, but I never found it.
