Operating System: Windows 8.1Cygwin Version: Latest version=2C as of Sept. 9=2C 2014. =3B
Guile Version: 1.8

Background:
My over= all goal is to install a program called "MIT Photonics Band (MPB)" (http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/MPB_d= ownload) on Windows 8.1 using Cygwin. I am a new user=2C as I started u= sing Cygwin a few days ago. I was able to install all required packages suc= cessfully after some troubleshooting. Eventually=2C I installed the MPB pro= gram using the generic ./configure=2C make=2C make install commands with sl= ight modifications. All of this appeared to be successful.

The Problem:
When I try to run the executable program=2C= I get the following error:
ERROR: In procedure pri=
mitive-load-path:=0A=
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path

Attempt At Solution:
The following is a p= age of the MPB installation manual:
It appears to address my issu= e. Note that it mentions LIBDIR and foobar. For my operating system=2C foob= ar is PATH. The LIBDIR=2C however=2C I do not know explicitly because my "m= ake install" output did not indicate it=2C as the manual suggests it should= have. Anyhow=2C I found the location of ice-9/boot-9.scm through a compute= r search and its directory happens to be here:
C:\cygwin64\usr\share\guile\1.8\ice-9
Hence=2C= I ran the following command (again=2C for a Windows 8.1 operating system) = in bash:
$ export PATH=3D"/usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9:$PA= TH"

However=2C note that when I r= un $PATH=2C I get this message:
$PATH
-bash: /usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9:/usr/l= ocal/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program: No such file or directory
=
I also t= ried:
$ export GUILE_LOAD_PATH=3D"/usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-= 9:$GUILE_LOAD_PATH"

=
That yielded:
-bash: /usr/share/guile/1.8/ic= e-9:: No such file or directory=0A=

Furthermore=2C I = tried to copy and paste the "ice-9" folder in various locations for a quick= and sloppy solution=2C but it was to no avail. I searched online for answe= rs as some users have had an issue with the program not finding the ice-9/b= oot-9.scm file in the past. I could not get my problem solved. =3B

Please let me know if I need to provide more information. I appreciat= e the help!
