Re: trouble compiling guile

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi,

"Waitman Gobble" <address@hidden> skribis:

> configure:42223: gcc -o conftest   -g -O2   conftest.c -lgc   -lcrypt -lm  >&5

The problem here seems to be that libgc was somehow miscompiled: it
should be built with thread support (use ‘--enable-threads’ when
configuring it), and it should have libpthread as NEEDED and in its
RPATH, which it apparently lacks.

Can you check that?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
