The best way I see is actually the full autotools toolchain. If you
write the simple thing, you’ll eventually be implementing all the
autotools stuff yourself, down to cross-compilation and other dark
corners, which is likely to be more work than going the autotools route.
If you want to avoid going through manual setup, you could give my conf
tool a try: it creates a basic autotools setup you can modify.
conf new myproj --lang guile
cd myproj
./bootstrap.sh && ./configure --prefix ~/.local && make && make install
cd /; guile -c '(import (myproj hello))(hello-world)'; cd -
It isn’t perfect yet, but it should have you set up within minutes.
It also gives the user easy-to-use uninstall:
make uninstall
