I cannot reproduce this problem. I guess you're using the latest Geiser from git? If this happens consistently to you, one thing to try is to ask the REPL for a backtrace (,bt) or the error message (,error) before quitting the debugger. Also, C-u M-x geiser-show-logs before entering the offending rational, and even before starting the REPL (the initial jump into the debugger might have been caused by something else: you can check whether that's the case by just pressing RET in the empty prompt). Thanks! jao > > GNU Guile 1.9.15 > Copyright (C) 1995-2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc. > > Guile comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `,show w'. > This program is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it > under certain conditions; type `,show c' for details. > > Enter `,help' for help. > scheme@(guile-user)> 5/9 > $1 = 5/9 > scheme@(guile-user) [16]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [15]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [14]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [13]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [12]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [11]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [10]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [9]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [8]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [7]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [6]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [5]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [4]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [3]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [2]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user) [1]> ,q > scheme@(guile-user)> > > The second time that the rational number is entered at the REPL prompt, > it is evaluated properly: > > scheme@(guile-user)> 5/9 > $2 = 5/9 > scheme@(guile-user)> > > -- > >
