I maintained the customized guile repo. Just follow the step by step guide.

For the guile-config problem, as a matter of fact, you do not have to install guile-2.0-dev

if you are only a user. Feel free to uninstall guile-2.0-dev.

I would like to try the graphing command with the SVN version of TeXmacs
(revision 12509). I have a question on installation.


As far as I understand, I have to compile it from source; for this I
need Guile 1.8.

How do I install Guile 1.8 without affecting the rest of my system
(Xubuntu 18.04) where I have a more recent version of Guile which I want
to keep as "default"? I have tried to do it with the package manager (I
must have downloaded the package some time ago, as I found it on
Synaptic!) and I get the following error message:

E:
/var/cache/apt/archives/guile-1.8-dev_1.8.8+1-8ubuntu3-bionic_amd64.deb:
trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/guile-config', which is also in package
guile-2.0-dev 2.0.13+1-5ubuntu0.1

which seems sensible. A brief search on the Internet did not help.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.


Giovanni
