Package: guile-1.6 Version: 1.6.7-1.1 Followup-For: Bug #224591
See also 224591. guile-config is in the guile-1.6 package. But this program is used in development of programs using guile. I'm trying to compile gnome-games (from CVS) and I have guile-1.6 but not libguile-dev installed. So gnome-games sees that guile-config is present and uses it to determine the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to compile the program with. But this doesn't work of course since the development package isn't installed. Once I install the development package, I get another problem: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lguile-ltdl -lguile-ltdl is given by the LDFLAGS by guile-config. There is a .so for this file present but no .la. So something is wrong in the packaging here if the config program tells you to use a library that doesn't work... I think these are the same bug: guile-config should be provided by the development package not the library package. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages guile-1.6 depends on: ii guile-1.6-libs 1.6.7-1.1 Main Guile libraries ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libguile-ltdl-1 1.6.7-1.1 Guile's patched version of libtool guile-1.6 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
