Hi Werner!
*If* we bundle guile 1.8 with lilypond, I strongly prefer static linking of the library (this is, adding `--disable-shared' to guile's configure script, together with a proper argument to the `--datarootdir' option to install the .scm files under a lilypond directory). This avoids *any* problems with different guile library versions, and the created lilypond binary can peacefully coexist with guile 2.0 even in the `/usr' tree.
Using a guile 1.8.8 built with --disable-shared building of lilypond fails early: chmod 755 out/lilypond-invoke-editor echo /home/knut/sources/lily/build/scripts/build/out/help2man /home/knut/sources/lily/build/scripts/build/out/help2man /home/knut/sources/lily/build/scripts/build/out/help2man out/lilypond-invoke-editor > out/lilypond-invoke-editor.1 help2man: can't get `--help' info from out/lilypond-invoke-editor Try `--no-discard-stderr' if option outputs to stderr Running build/scripts/out/lilypond-invoke-editor gives a hint: ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link: ERROR: file: "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3", message: "file not found" Ok, we don't really need it, so a brutal fix is to simply remove the srfi modules from that file... that works. After that the build does not succeed, but it fails after building the binary. Executing the lilypond binary gives GNU LilyPond 2.19.55 /home/knut/sources/guile18built/share/guile/1.8/srfi/srfi-1.scm:223:1: In procedure dynamic-link in expression (load-extension "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3" "scm_init_srfi_1"): /home/knut/sources/guile18built/share/guile/1.8/srfi/srfi-1.scm:223:1: file: "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3", message: "file not found" Ok, let's look at srfi-1.scm line 221..223: ;; Load the compiled primitives from the shared library. ;; (load-extension "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3" "scm_init_srfi_1") Could it be that --disable-shared kills support of required modules? Is there a known workaround? cu, Knut
