Guile Hall 0.2.1 Released

Guile Hall 0.2.1 Released

[Alex Sassmannshausen]

Hello,

I've just released Guile Hall 0.2.1.  It is primarily a maintenance
release to support Guile 3.0.  This means it should work with Guile 3
and it should also make any project managed through hall (by using the
`hall dist` command) work with Guile 3.0.

Beyond this the new release includes a greatly expanded manual, and some
smaller tweaks and bug fixes.

You can get it with Guix after pulling the latest version with
$ guix package -i guile-hall

Otherwise you can get the code from
  https://gitlab.com/a-sassmannshausen/guile-hall/

After installing autoconf, automake, pkg-config and texinfo, you can
perform the usual
  autoreconf -vif && ./configure && make && make install

What is Guile Hall?

From the README:

Hall is a command-line application and a set of Guile libraries that
allow you to quickly create and publish Guile projects.  It allows you
to transparently support the GNU build system, manage a project
hierarchy & provides tight coupling to Guix.

It's fundamental aim is to provide a black box that just works (tm)
for you so you distribute, manage & create guile projects.

This project is part of my overall goal of creating user-friendly basic
tooling & libraries for Guile to encourage newbies to start building
with Guile.

Best wishes,

Alex
