Re: debian squeeze/sid - guile-master-20100617 [fails] now it's working

[David Pirotte]

Hello,

        debian squeeze/sid - git clone of october the 12th, 2010
                ...
                gcc                     4:4.4.4-2
                libgc-dev       1:7.1-3
                libgc1c2                1:7.1-3
                ...

Very sorry for the lonnnng delay! For me your suggestion didn't work. What 
worked is
the following [also manually defining LIBFFI_xxx vars]:

        export PKG_CONFIG=true
        export BDW_GC_CFLAGS=
        export BDW_GC_LIBS=-lgc
        export LIBFFI_CFLAGS=
        export LIBFFI_LIBS=-lffi
        ./configure
        make

Thanks,
David
