Hello,
Today, I ran an upgrade because 'chicken-meta-setup check' showed new eggs. However after installing the new tinyclos, misc-extn, and lookup-table eggs, a new check with chicken-meta-setup failed because that crashes. Further, chicken-setup on logging fails because it requires uri, and setup on tool fails because that requires array-lib. On both occasions, these eggs are said to not exist, e.g.: Error: Broken dependencies: extension does not exist: array-lib I am looking for a solution that does not mean installing all eggs from scratch. Anyway, I propose the following: please keep dependencies between eggs small. Kon has a set of extensions called misc-extn, which is fine, but an egg should not need more than one set of idiosyncratic extensions. Further, no mutual dependencies (A needs B, and B needs A) should be created. Dependencies by proxy are even worse. And lastly, "core eggs" should use es few other eggs as possible. Eggs that are compiled in unsafe mode or idiosyncratic should not appear here at all. Thanks to everyone who contributed and contributes, Benedikt _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
