Hi,
I had the recollection that lilypond nowadays can work with Guile 2, but
when I checked right now in the docs, I saw them saying "Version 2.x of
Guile is not currently supported"
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/included/compile.itexi;h=0abd68a9177912138f01055504f20721e4a507de;hb=HEAD#l85
Do you know the state of using lilypond with modern Guile?
Does the lilypond in Guix use Guile 2?
Does lilypond on Windows use Guile 2?
Best wishes,
Arne

Due to the lack of manpower we don't get close to release any LilyPond
supporting guile-2.x.
Thus the known problems persist.
All low hanging fruits are done, though and speaking only for me: I
can't go deeper, it's beyond my depth.
Remember, I'm not even a programmer, but a musician, maybe an
ambitious musician ;)
Additionally I recently found something preventing our `make
test-baseline´ to work.
Probablly identified here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2019-10/msg00236.html
(unsolved)
Following the link you'll find a .zip containing several patches.
Applying them you'll get a successful
`make´ and `make doc` for every guile up to guile-2.9.4, but as said
`make test-baseline´ fails.

No clue, I doubt, though.

Hi Thomas,
Thank you for your answer and for continuing to check Guile 2!

That actually looks pretty promising. Thank you for tackling it!
So with your patches Lilypond works with Guile 2.0.14. Is there a chance
that you could get them into a new guile-v2-work-rev2 branch or such?
And maybe post the commands you use to build and test it?
Best wishes,
Arne

Well, the mentioned zip contains several patches from several people.
Including some of your suggestions. ;)
My own are sometimes more (rude) workarounds than fixes.

I hesitate to checkin patches reverting upstream work. Better to fix
the underlying problem, ofcourse.
In general I'd prefer to wait for official guile3 release. Any idea
when it will happen?
> And maybe post the commands you use to build and test it?
Nothing surprising.
From lilypond-git-repo's master I checkout a local branch and throw-in
all those patches.
Then I follow our "Contributor's guide", i.e.
sh autogen.sh --noconfigure
mkdir -p build/
cd build/
../configure --enable-guile2
make
For the docs (if wished)
make doc
For testings
make test-baseline
and
make check
Ofcourse `configure --enable-guile2´ will search for the
system-installed guile2-version.
One could point to other guile and guile-config...
Cheers,
Harm

It would be great if we could change that once it works with Guile 2.9
again, because that will be the testbed closest to Guile development.
That would be a way to reduce the probability that changes in Guile
break lilypond.
Best wishes,
Arne
