I tried the pre-install meta/guile. $ (use-modules (rnrs io ports)) This fails with the same dlsym error message, whether I run with -c, or interactively. I checked the 'lsof' to see which libraries it is picking up 'lsof -p PID', and it looks like it's picking up all shared libs in the build directory properly: .../fink.build/guile19-1.9.3-1/guile-1.9.3/build/libguile/.libs/libguile.18.dylib % meta/guile $ (for-each (lambda (x) (display x) (newline)) %load-path ) /Volumes/Mercedes2/sw/src/fink.build/guile19-1.9.3-1/guile-1.9.3/build/guile-readline /Volumes/Mercedes2/sw/src/fink.build/guile19-1.9.3-1/guile-1.9.3/guile-readline /Volumes/Mercedes2/sw/src/fink.build/guile19-1.9.3-1/guile-1.9.3/build /Volumes/Mercedes2/sw/src/fink.build/guile19-1.9.3-1/guile-1.9.3 /Volumes/Mercedes2/sw/src/fink.build/guile19-1.9.3-1/guile-1.9.3/build/module /Volumes/Mercedes2/sw/src/fink.build/guile19-1.9.3-1/guile-1.9.3/module /sw/share/guile/site /sw/share/guile/1.9 /sw/share/guile [/Volume/Mercedes2/sw/src/fink.build/... is where I'm building] I've checked that symbol table for 'nm libguile/.libs/libguile.dylib' contains a defined symbol for "scm_init_r6rs_ports": 00061d60 T _scm_init_r6rs_ports Any other ideas?
