Hi!

Thank to you, I found the "autoreconf -vfi" command I was looking for
to generate the configure script for at least 2 years OMG haha (I am
the guy who cloned any repo to try some and then cry solely because he
can't configure the module hahaha ahem...).

So back to topic, I had to

   $ touch build-aux/config.rpath

Then I

   $ autoreconf -vfi

Then I

   $ ./configure --with-guilemoduledir=/usr/share/guile/site/2.2
   $ make
   $ sudo make install

And DONE!

Thank you so much Catonano.
