Hi Harlan, Reg, NTP developers (via relay) & Guile developers:
This is a problem. I (almost) only ever use pre-built Guile
packages and let others struggle with the porting issue.
Occasionally, I do build it just to verify that current
versions haven't wiggled too much for AutoGen to operate,
but otherwise, no.
So, Reg, can you please tell us all the platform and compiler
you used that triggered the Guile build failure?
I tried building
guile-1.6.7
from the gnu site.
Not knowing anything about the options available, I did a straight
./configure
make
The configure runs with no errors, but the make terminates with
---
guile.c: In function 'main':
guile.c:91: error: array type has incomplete element type
guile.c:91: warning: unused variable 'lt_preloaded_symbols'
make[2]: *** [guile.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/mnt/home/reg/Source/System/Autogen/guile-1.6.7/libguile'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/home/reg/Source/System/Autogen/guile-1.6.7'

This is on Linux Fedora4, with gcc-4.0.2-8.fc4
am I missing something?
I looked arround, and didnt see a prebuilt package anywhere.
