bug#34922: guile-wm crashes on login


From: ng0
Subject: bug#34922: guile-wm crashes on login
Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2019 17:32:29 +0000

If I remember my interaction with guile-wm correctly
this is expected behavior out of the box.

Upstream has probably moved on to other interests,
because there are more errors at runtime once you
get to launch into guile-wm. For a couple of years
now volunteers have been asking about how to help
and so on but nothing has happened.
