Re: Who has comiled guile 1.6.x on Mac OS X?

[dskr]

Fellow Guile users,

Here's some magic I use. I'm not a fink user, so some of these tweaks 
may not be necessary for people who choose to go down the fink path. I 
use guile-1.6.3 on Mac OS X daily along with guile-gtk-1.2-0.31 and 
guileGL-0.1.2. They are quite a trick to build and install as non-root 
-- each requires patches to deal with this situation.

As a further complication, the Guile build process inserts some nuggets 
about the build environment directly into the guile libraries. This 
makes moving the guile installation around quite a trick. I use a patch 
to the ice-9 boot scheme file that replaces %build-info with correct 
values at runtime.

Attached is a screenshot of my Guile environment on OS X. It lives in 
my Dock.

Here's a shell function I use to build guile:

build_guile()
{
  if [ -f "/etc/redhat-release" ] ; then
    : # we don't currently have any redhatisms...
  elif [ -d "/Applications" ] ; then
    export CPPFLAGS="-traditional-cpp"
  else
    EXTRA_CONFIG_FLAGS=""
  fi

  rm -rf ./guile-$GUILE_VERSION
  tar -xvzf $SW_ROOT/guile/guile-$GUILE_VERSION.tar.gz
  cd guile-$GUILE_VERSION
    ./configure --prefix=$HOME/virt/guile-$GUILE_VERSION

    # patch guile with a target-specific patch
    if [ -f "../guile-$GUILE_VERSION.patch" ] ; then
      patch -p1 < ../guile-$GUILE_VERSION.patch
    elif [ -f "../guile.patch" ] ; then
      patch -p1 < ../guile.patch
    fi

    ./configure --prefix=$HOME/virt/guile-$GUILE_VERSION

    make

    make install

  cd ..
}

Here's the guile.patch referenced above:
