Guile 2.0.0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

guile-2.0.0 has been released, there are some important changes.

- The license changed from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.

- The libguile API changed and there were also some changes in the
  language itself. Recompiling depending packages (with patching C
  code) probably won't be enough, patches for Scheme code might be
  necessary.

- Guile now automatically compiles Scheme code to bytecode. For Scheme
  files that don't have the .go files beside them, they are generated
  and stored in $HOME/.cache/guile/ccache. It can be disabled (with
  huge performance penalty) by setting GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=0. I think
  we might want to pregenerate them and store them in rpm, either in
  the spec file manually, or in a rpm script, similarly to python, but
  I'm not sure we should try to generate .go file for every .scm found
  in the buildroot as it might be a code for a different Scheme
  implementation.

Suggestions? Do we want to keep this in a special rawhide koji target
for now?
