Hi people,


I got the following error message when trying to dlopen a shared library
in ~/guix-profile/bin/guile installed by guix:

scheme@(guile-user)> (dynamic-link "libm")
ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link:
ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link: file: "libm", message: "file not found"

Entering a new prompt.  Type `,bt' for a backtrace or `,q' to continue.


I think it is a guix-specific problem since /usr/bin/guile installed by
debian works fine:

scheme@(guile-user)> (dynamic-link "libm")
$1 = #<dynamic-object "libm">


Any idea?

Thanks,
Alex
