I already had libgc from Guix, and indeed it was the one picked up by Guile. The problem seems to be limited to guile-readline. I guess the problem might be related to an "-rpath /usr/lib" that ends up in 'relink_command' in guile-readline/libguilereadline-v-18.la: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- # Directory that this library needs to be installed in: libdir='/usr/lib' relink_command="(cd /home/mhw/guile/guile-readline; /bin/bash /home/mhw/guile/libtool --silent --tag CC --mode=relink gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wpointer-arith -Wswitch-enum -fno-strict-aliasing -I/nix/store/a9j9bl7m73rhlal9z83z3wbl9m17di4i-libgc-7.4.0/include -g -O2 -version-info 18:0:0 -export-dynamic -no-undefined -o libguilereadline-v-18.la -rpath /usr/lib readline.lo -lreadline -lncurses ../libguile/libguile-2.0.la ../lib/libgnu.la -lcrypt -lm @inst_prefix_dir@)" --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I'm not sure why libtool is putting that rpath in there, but here are some possibly relevant lines from config.log: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- BDW_GC_LIBS='-L/nix/store/a9j9bl7m73rhlal9z83z3wbl9m17di4i-libgc-7.4.0/lib -lgc ' GUILE_LIBS=' -lcrypt -lm ' INTL_MACOSX_LIBS='' LIBFFI_LIBS='-L/nix/store/49535xllwsa3mwddjj1hny84l0p7c453-libffi-3.0.13/lib -lffi ' PTHREAD_LIBS='' READLINE_LIBS='-lreadline -lncurses ' --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- All of the libraries listed above are in ~/.guix-profile/lib, but it seems that only the ones that are found using 'pkg-config' end up with corresponding -L arguments. Also possibly relevant: I don't have LD_LIBRARY_PATH set. Should I? The only environment variables I have pointing to anything Guix-related are the ones I listed in my previous email. Am I missing anything? Thanks, Mark
