Hi,
Configuring guile-core from CVS so that it builds requires a wizard.
Although I can claim to be an old autoconf and automake user, I needed
two hours and the help from Kevin Ryde to get it running.
Therefore I'd suggest that you add some instructions to guile-core/autogen.sh
so that it does become so extremely frustrating to attempt to build guile.
# =====================================================================
# The above commands can fail under some circumstances.
# Here are instructions for getting things working manually.
#
# 1) You need autoconf 2.59, automake 1.9.x in the $PATH.
# You also need libtool >= 1.5 installed, say, under $LIBTOOL_PREFIX.
# You also need gettext >= 0.11.2 installed, say, under $GETTEXT_PREFIX.
#
# 2) Use these commands to update guile-core:
# $LIBTOOL_PREFIX/bin/libtoolize --force --copy --ltdl
# cp $LIBTOOL_PREFIX/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 guile-config/libtool.m4
# aclocal -I guile-config
# autoconf
# autoheader && touch config.h.in
# automake -a
# cp $GETTEXT_PREFIX/share/gettext/config.rpath config.rpath
#
# 3) Use these commands to update guile-core/guile-readline:
# (cd guile-readline
# aclocal -I ../guile-config
# autoconf
# automake -a
# )
#
# 4) For the first configure, use
# ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode
Bruno
