I have an update here, sorry, I can't help trying to figure out what's
wrong. In the definition of my r-aspi, I found that the base32 was not
well calculated, and I have already corrected that. Now this line does
not appear anymore when throwing the same commands. the other warnings
do. and the In procedure module-lookup: Unbound variable: continue
too.  I also tried generating the new cran.go with guild compile
cran.scm but the output was really awful. If you need it, when you
answer back I paste it.
