This did not help, unfortunately. I keep getting the same error.

Now I've removed guile-2.0.
I've built and installed guile-1.8 in /usr/local. /usr/local/bin is in 
my path.

But I get this error:

checking for guile-config... no
checking guile compile flags... /usr/local/bin/guile: error while 
loading shared libraries: libguile.so.17: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory

checking guile link flags... /usr/local/bin/guile: error while loading 
shared libraries: libguile.so.17: cannot open shared object file: No 
such file or directory

I've stolen these settings (put in ~/.bashrc) from a script of Knut 
posted in this list last month, but it does not help:

# Settings needed to compile lilypond with guile-1.8
GUILELIBDIR=/usr/local/lib
export LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath,$GUILELIBDIR"
