Guile Version in Red Hat 8

Asked by Justin Fisher

Hi.

I'm trying to install geda-gaf from from git. after autogen i do:

./configure

which gives me:

configure: error: you need Guile 2.x (at least version 2.0.10)

but:
guile --version
guile (GNU Guile) 2.0.14

Any ideas?

Hi Justin,

you need the development files for Guile. On Red Hat, I assume the appropriate package is called "guile-devel-<VERSION>"; on Debian, it would be "guile-2.0-dev" or "guile-2.2-dev", depending on your version of Guile. gEDA/gaf locates these files using pkg-config, so if your Guile installation includes a file called

    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/guile-2.0.pc

or

    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/guile-2.2.pc

then you should be good.
