[bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

Hello, How does one compile the latest Bigloo releases (4.3e and 4.3f) on Debian? I get the following output at the end of `./configure && make`. On Mac the same commands succeed. make[1]: Entering directory '/bigloo/runtime' make[1]: '.afile' is up to date. make[1]: Leaving directory '/biglo

Re: [bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

Thank you for helping out :) I managed to switch from dash to bash but get the same error. I'm trying to build a Debian-based Docker container out of Bigloo; here's the Dockerfile I have so far: -- # -*- mode: dockerfile; co

Re: [bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

OK, I am sorry it was not that easy. No problem. I appreciate the help. If we figure this out, maybe we'll learn something to make it easier :) RUN tar -xf bigloo4.3f.tar.gz && mv bigloo4.3f bigloo Why do you need the renaming? This is not a normal build step (without Docker). It's not n

Re: [bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

Thanks to your help we managed to make a working container. If you have Docker, trying it out is as simple as: $ docker run -it weinholt/bigloo That command goes right into a Bigloo REPL. It's also possible to get a bash shell to explore the container's Linux file system by typing: $ docker

Re: [bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

Thanks to your help we managed to make a working container. Forgot to mention, the container doesn't have Bigloo's JVM support, just the C version. We could build the JVM stuff too, but the JVM containers get really big so we could make it a separate container. What is the official Bigloo re

Re: [bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

What is the official Bigloo repo by the way - is it ? Correct. Is also the main issue tracker used by Bigloo nowadays, or is there another tracker people should use? We could add that information t

[bigloo] HTTPS download site for releases

Current Bigloo releases are downloaded from an old-school FTP site at . FTP is getting a bit anachronistic nowadays, as it doesn't have SSL crypto and requires special tools (e.g. Docker's "add" command only supports HTTP). Would it be possible to find a secure HTTPS se

Re: [bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

Is also the main issue tracker used by Bigloo nowadays Yes, see Manuel's announcement on this list: https://sympa.inria.fr/sympa/arc/bigloo/2018-09/msg1.html Great. GitHub issues are really nice to use. It might be good to link prominentl

Re: [bigloo] HTTPS download site for releases

It's true that FTP is not encrypted, but FTPS and SFTP do exist.  See for example https://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Main_Page While that is true, HTTPS is now more widely supported and has a simpler interface. This leads to less surprises and less work for users. Most projects use it; I recom

Re: [bigloo] How to compile Bigloo on Debian Linux

Sorry for being late with this issue... No problem :) Are you still facing the problem? If you are did you start with a fresh tarball file and a fresh directory? If not could you try that. If the compilation still fails, could you send me the Makefile.config file that is generated by configure

[bigloo] R7RS support?

Are there plans to support R7RS? Bigloo is one of the only major Scheme implementations that don't align with R6RS/R7RS yet. Supporting R7RS (define-library ...) would be particularly important for portable code and would probably be the main thing that takes major effort to implement.

[bigloo] Bigloo4.3g container

Thank you for another release and for your continued work on Bigloo. The Docker container has been updated: $ docker run -it weinholt/bigloo -- Bigloo (4.3g) [...] $ docker run -it weinholt/bigloo bash root@dc6f133824

Re: [bigloo] ANN: bigloo-4.3h

Docker container has now been updated to 4.3h Wonderful! Would you like me to add a note about in the contribution tab of the Bigloo web site? Sure, thanks! If you do, how would you like me to present it? It's part of a big collection of containers for Scheme implementations. We have 45 o

Re: [bigloo] Preparing 4.4a

The release 4.4a is now almost complete. Just one or two additional tests and it will be ready. I would appreciate if you could it a last try. It is available there: ftp://ftp-sop.inria.fr/indes/fp/Bigloo/bigloo-unstable.tar.gz I was able to build a Docker container with no trouble using the

[bigloo] Installing Skribe or Scheme Scribe on current computers

Hello, Do Skribe and/or Scheme Scribe work with current versions of Bigloo or other Scheme implementations, and if they do, what is the usual way to install them on a Unix-like operating system? BR, Lassi

Re: [bigloo] Trouble downloading Bigloo

The main point is that it is unnecessarily complex.  It should be easy to just use an HTTP link. +1 HTTP is now the standard, and is supported by more tools more easily.

Re: [bigloo] Bigloo-4.5b

I successfully built a Docker container using the same Dockerfile as for the previous release of Bigloo. However, the build log shows a number of errors, especially toward the end when running tests. These errors don't seem to make the tests fail. You may want to take a look at it. The log is

Re: [bigloo] SRFI 13 & SRFI 14 for Bigloo

I have made Bigloo adaptions of SRFI 13 - String Libraries and SRFI 14-Character Sets . As with the sample implementations, they are limited to iso-latin 1 but hopefully will still be useful to some. Thank you. These

[bigloo] Web server on ftp-sop.inria.fr?

This just occurred to me. Could we convince the system administrator of ftp-sop to add a web server to that host? A simple install of nginx with directory listings enabled would be good enough. `curl -I https://www-sop.inria.fr/` shows that www-sop is already running nginx. It would make the B
