And I think it is. The "gnu:guile-master:tarball" build > last succeeded on 17th June, and has been failing since then: > http://hydra.nixos.org/job/gnu/guile-master/tarball/all?page=1 This has been an on-and-off issue: 02fcbf78b27788c03563e5c3d297a4cd469ce562, and 04af4c4c5221c082905d52eb5ad3829ed681d097. Indeed running the repl before srfi-1 is built should not work. As a corollary, the docstring texi thing should not require srfi-1 to work, which obviously is failing for you and hydra, though not for me and a number of other people. I don't really get it. I thought this was fixed. There have been a couple threads about this, even, if you search the archives in recent months. Can you look in the output of `meta/uninstalled-env env' for any off paths? What about in %load-path / %load-compiled-path ? At the same time there must be an issue there somehow, or the tarball buildbot would not be failing (surely?). Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
