Hi,
This is as intended.
Do you have a rationale for this intention? I have been thinking about this for weeks now, and I still cannot come up with a scenario when I would like this behaviour. That is if I'd load a lua-on-guile REPL, I wouldn't like to have Lua symbols missing and Scheme symbols present. I had a look at the guile codebase proposed a patch that would unify the behaviour of REPL and script execution: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2020-11/msg00004.html --- Holger Peters <holger.peters@posteo.de> Am 07.11.2020 21:59 schrieb Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide:

That seems strange because overall I would expect REPL environments and non-REPL environments to be roughly the same. So, is this a bug? Works as intended? And if this is intended in this way is there a workaround to make REPL and script exeution to behave the same (preferably without namespace `pollution').
Best wishes, Arne
