Well, maybe I could hack something that uses srfi-0, but it sounds kinda ugly, and liable to break if a guile upgrade changed the features it exported. Right now, a package can declare multiple 'provides' so that you can e.g. require srfi-1 and it would pull in the appropriate package. But as it stands, the provides are somewhat orthogonal to how the code gets installed. Andreas, Guildhall is a friendly fork of Dorodango, so what do you think about adding this sort of thing? -- Ian Price -- shift-reset.com "Programming is like pinball.
