g-wrap - apt-get installs 2 different versions ?

g-wrap - apt-get installs 2 different versions ?

[David Pirotte]

Hi guilers,

just upgraded all debian guile packages, and I'd like to ge trid of 
my manually installed ones, since there is no more reason now.

a quick look to the /usr/share/guile tells me that we have 2 g-wrap
directories, an g-wrap.scm files (see below).

dates show that the version in /usr/share/guile/site is more recent.

should it not be taken care of by package developpers? here are the
packages installed on my deb box:

The one in /usr/share/guile/site is from the new (1.9.3) G-Wrap
package (which is not yet in Debian, still stuck in NEW). To find out
where those files belong:

% dpkg -S /usr/share/guile/site/g-wrap.scm
g-wrap: /usr/share/guile/site/g-wrap.scm
% dpkg -S /usr/share/guile/g-wrap.scm
libgwrapguile1: /usr/share/guile/g-wrap.scm

g-wrap conflicts with libgwrapguile-dev, but not libgwrapguile1 (so it
can be parallel-install with e.g. GnuCash, which requires
libgwrapguile1). Those files in fact should be in libgwrapguile-dev,
as they are not needed at runtime; since the old G-Wrap package has no
maintainer ATM, and will be removed from the distribution pretty soon
anyway, this is unlikely to happen, and doesn't matter much, as
/usr/share/guile/site/ precedes /usr/share/guile/ in the %load-path.

  g-wrap conflicts with libgwrapguile-dev, but not libgwrapguile1 (so it
  can be parallel-install with e.g. GnuCash, which requires
  libgwrapguile1).

I have seen claims that GnuCash works with g-wrap 1.9.3 - what's up
here?  (I can certainly understand that the Debian package requires
g-wrap1 still, especially with the new g-wrap not being in the system...)

On NetBSD with pkgsrc, gnucash uses guile 1.6.x and g-wrap 1.
Changing the Makefile to use g-wrap 1.9.3 instead results in the build
succeeding and startup failing with:

ERROR: no code for module (g-wrap gw-wct)

This is with gnucash 1.8.10.

This looks tantalizing close to working.

Is anyone able to build a working gnucash with g-wrap 1.9.3?
Does the new g-wrap need to provide  that module, or is it a bug in
gnucahs to require it

Yeah, that's a known bug in G-Wrap 1.9.3, which I didn't catch because
I had the old G-Wrap later in the %load-path.

Just drop some (possibly empty) module (g-wrap gw-wct) somewhere on
the %load-path, then it should work.

1.9.4 will come with that module, although there's a problem with
guile-gnome to be solved before I can release that.

What problem is that?
