are we really adding dependencies while we are 'frozen'???



checking for BDW_GC... configure: error: Package requirements (bdw-gc) were not met:

No package 'bdw-gc' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BDW_GC_CFLAGS
and BDW_GC_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Sorry if we did not communicate clearly; the plan was definitely to
merge in bdw-gc before the release, and possibly during the freeze
period.

Indeed.  This was an exception to what generally happens in a `freeze',
because merging BDW-GC was a bigger job than most merges, and it
wouldn't have helped Ludovic to have lots of other things changing at
the same time.

But sorry anyway; we're not (currently) planning any other exceptions
like that.

If you pop these into your environment, the build should get past this
point:

export BDW_GC_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include
export BDW_GC_LIBS=-lgc

        Neil

Probably you did.  I am just barely able to pay attention, and likely
forgot - while I see the point this kind of change in freeze is unusual.

I installed pkgsrc/devel/boehm-gc and then:

Perhaps boehm-gc can be built with thread support?  The guile README
doesn't seem to say anything about this.  pkgsrc does have the ability
to configure with thread support, but by default doesn't.  I don't know
why - but usually there are programs that want it and programs that
can't have it, leading to trouble.  I will inquire.
