OK, I just downloaded and built guile-1.8.1. Gnetlist and spice-sdb seem to work just fine on my old FC1 system with the new guile-1.8.1. Therefore, I don't know what your problem might be since it doesn't seem to be associated with the new guile release.
At some point in the future I will build a new FC6 box. Then I will download and install gEDA using the FC6 RPM set. Then I can see what is wrong with gEDA on FC6. Maybe we'll do this during a code sprint or at a FreeDog meeting. Meanwhile, I suggest that if you really need to use gEDA, then you ditch FC6 and use an FC5 system. FWIW, every time Red Hat releases a new Fedora Core, they manage to break gEDA in some way or another. It takes us developers a little after the release to clean up the breakage.
[OT] however is it normal that packages are installed at /usr/local/share/gEDA instead of /usr/share/gEDA ?
Assuming you installed from RPMs, the install path is determined by the package builder (i.e. not us). If you install using the gEDA install CD, then *you* can specify the install path at the beginning of the install sequence. That does raise an interesting issue: Guile is very finickey about where it lives, and is also unhappy if there is some mixing of different versions/install locations. When you installed gEDA, did some version of guile get installed too? Perhaps into the /usr/local/share hierarchy? If so, then guile can become confused .... Please do a little probing and see if you have multiple copies of guile in /usr/bin and in /usr/local/bin. Then, if you do, please eliminate one of them.
