I copied guile-gcrypt
I changed all the occurrrences of "gcrypt" in "freexl" in all the relevant
files
I created an env with
~/projects/guile-freexl$ guix environment -l ./guix.scm --ad-hoc guile
freexl
I run configure and I got
checking for libfreexl-config... no
checking libfreexl's library directory...
checking for libfreexl shared library name... libfreexl
checking whether libfreexl can be dynamically loaded... no
configure: error: GNU libfreexl does not appear to be usable; see
`--with-libfreexl-prefix' and `README'.
If I do the same in guile-gcrypt it builds successfully
Why ?
P.S. it's here https://gitlab.com/humanitiesNerd/guile-freexl
P.P.S I tried with both "libfreexl" AND "freexl"

I quickly tried:
`./configure --with-freexl-prefix=$GUIX_ENVIRONMENT'
and that seems to complete (a `make' invocation afterwards
understandably fails).
Maybe the following link might help you? It was actually about gcrypt ;-).

Thanks for working on this!

The following command seemed to run to completion for me:
[env]$ ./configure --with-freexl-prefix=$GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
Maybe check out the following link, by coincidence about gcrypt as well ;-).

Jelle,
thank you for your suggestion
But there's something I don't understand
the suggestion to add
--with-freexl-prefix=$GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
fixes my guile-freexl but is nor necessary in guile-gcrypt
why ?

this is an excerpt from running configure in guile-gcrypt
checking for guile-config... /home/catonano/.guix-profile/bin/guile-config
checking for libgcrypt-config...
/gnu/store/1y54p19lvz3rh6a5dyynnffn9dbal2li-profile/bin/libgcrypt-config
checking libgcrypt's library directory...
/gnu/store/hag795ji8p9vqikwp8cibfibpsa39s3n-libgcrypt-1.7.6/lib
checking for libgcrypt shared library name...
/gnu/store/hag795ji8p9vqikwp8cibfibpsa39s3n-libgcrypt-1.7.6/lib/libgcrypt
As you can see it checks that "...bin/libgcrypt-config" is present AND it
checks the "shared library name"
Now this is configure from my guile-freexl
checking for guile-config... /home/catonano/.guix-profile/bin/guile-config
checking for freexl shared library name...
/gnu/store/13p9jpf8gp3mg414az1dsf59vw2hyyw2-profile/lib/libfreexl
as you can see it DOESN'T look for any ...bin/freexl-config AND it doesn't
look for the library shared name
why ?
It is substantially the same repo, I cloned it and changed the strings
"gcrypt" to "freexl"
That's all I did

Ok, I resigned myself to not understanding what I'm doing and I adopted
your suggestion
The configure phase now passes
sigh

Rereading it now, it was clearer
Sorry for the noise
