The Chicken 3.15 tarball, when ./configured on Cygwin, creates a directory lib/chicken/1 with nothing in it. What is this for, and is this behavior correct? I'm guessing it's for eggs, and "1" strikes me as a rather odd version number, but maybe that's what it's supposed to be. Anyways, tell me what's supposed to be happening so I can duplicate it for CMake.
The "1" is a binary compatibility number. If changes to the runtime system would mean binary incompatibility (provided I can guess that it does), the number is increased. An alternative would be to generally use the chicken version, but that would mean re-installation of all eggs on every version change which may be annyoing, especially when one always uses the latest development version. cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
