Description Geoffrey Mainland 2006-02-08 22:20:04 UTC 
	The upgrade of slib to 3a2 causes problems with guile. In particular
	gnucash to fail with the message:

	ERROR: Unbound variable: with-load-pathname

	See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=337359

How-To-Repeat: 	Upgrade slib and try to run gnucash.

Over to gnome since they maintain lang/guile, which is where the Debian 
bug report followup claims the underlying problem is.

Fixed in slib 3a3. Thanks.
Comment 3 Geoffrey Mainland 2006-02-20 17:13:08 UTC 
How was this determined to be fixed?

I upgraded to slib 3a3. With lang/slib-guile 3a1 installed gnucash still
failed with the same error. Of course slib-guile is now marked broken
since installing it with slib 3a3 gives the error

ERROR: Unbound variable: with-load-pathname

Maybe I'm missing something, but the 3a3 upgrade does not appear to have
fixed anything.

Keep open. Not fixed yet.

Take it.  I think this is a problem with the slib-guile port, not 
guile itself.  Testing a solution now.
Comment 6 robbak 2006-06-07 12:44:11 UTC 
This is reported to be a fault in guile. The fix has been made in 
current versions of guile. Until the next update, we will have to patch 
ourselves.

This should be given further regression testing in other uses of guile. 
No problems reported from gnucash yet.

Fix: apply atached patch to guile and rebuild guile and slib-guile

This patch should be removed from the ports tree when guile is next updated.
