Package: libguile-dev
Version: 1:1.4-24
Severity: normal


Unfortunately, guile's m4 macros (provided by
/usr/share/aclocal/guile.m4) lack the basic necessities.  There is no
way to tell if guile is installed; you either assume guile is installed
(and have the macro exit with an error if it's not), or write your own
macro.  I suggest something like the following:
                                                                                
                                                                                
# Usage: AC_GUILE_FLAGS([AC_SUBST(HAVE_GUILE)], [echo "building without
# guile support"])
AC_DEFUN([AC_GUILE_FLAGS], [
  AC_PATH_PROG(GUILE_CONFIG, guile-config, no)
  if test "$GUILE_CONFIG" = "no"; then
    $2
  else
    GUILE_CFLAGS="`$GUILE_CONFIG compile`"
    GUILE_LDFLAGS="`$GUILE_CONFIG link`"
    AC_SUBST(GUILE_CFLAGS)
    AC_SUBST(GUILE_LDFLAGS)
    $1
  fi
])

Version: 1:1.4-26+rm

The libguile-dev package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/338407 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
Barry deFreese
