Re: [guppi-list] Can't compile Guppi 0.40.2

[John Williams <jwilliams business otago ac nz>]

Thanks for your reply Jon.  I have tried my hardest to clean my system
of obsolete header files, but get the same result.  In desperation I did
a `make uninstall` of guile 1.5.4 and reinstalled guile 1.3.4 from RPM
(I'm on a Red Hat 7.2 system).  Now (after re-running configure) I get

gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wunused -o .libs/demo demo.o -rdynamic -rdynamic

./.libs/libguppi.so: undefined reference to `scm_master_freelist'


This is becoming frustrating! :-)  

Also, about my original question: what version(s) of guile have you (or
anyone else) compiled Guppi 0.40.2 against?

Thanks again for your  help.
