Hi,

 This is documented in README.Debian, but I'm not sure that's enough. Any
 other suggestion?

The file reads:

  This package includes a few guile dynamic libraries, but they can't be
  used without their corresponding .la files.

Why is it the case?  AFAIK, neither `dynamic-link' nor `load-extension'
needs the `.la' files, and `mailutils.scm' (for instance) doesn't refer
to them directly.

 Depending on the -dev package is not a good
 alternative, but maybe creating a (tiny) package for the guile stuff
 which does depend on -dev could be.

Yes, a tiny self-contained `guile-mailutils' package.

Thanks,
Ludovic.

 To fix it, a symlink must be installed for all shared objects, e.g.:
 
   root:/usr/lib# ln -s libmailutils.so.1 libmailutils.so

Hi,

The Guile module fails to load `libmailutils':

  $ guile-1.6 
  guile (use-modules (mailutils mailutils))
  /usr/share/guile/site/mailutils/mailutils.scm:37:12: In procedure

To fix it, a symlink must be installed for all shared objects, e.g.:

  root:/usr/lib# ln -s libmailutils.so.1 libmailutils.so

Thanks,
Ludovic.
