I was going to say, it would take some effort to backport the

appreciate the new addition to chicken-setup; and at least I can

Well, it's certainly not going to hurt anybody, and it might be
somewhat useful for future forking of the egg repository. Though of
course some eggs might later have bug fixes that don't necessarily
break compatibility with older versions... whatever happened to the
idea of having unit tests

Hello CHICKEN users,
I'm new both to chicken scheme and, in fact, to scheme itself. I was attracted
to chicken as soon as I saw that it had a very simple module management
system.
I have experienced a few problems with installing some of the eggs though. It
seems that two important eggs (i.e.

I think even the most simple kind of Chicken/egg versioning would
go a long way. For example, I can build easyffi and use it in Chicken
2.3 if I simply remove the -G option. So if chicken-setup supported
different build commands for different versions of Chicken, this would
make packaging

Thanks for your replies regarding this.
I've just managed to install easyffi by removing the -G option from
easyffi.setup.
But it looks like I'll have to have a go at self-compilation. Being a Debian
user I'm extremely unused to this sort of thing. Wish me luck ;-)

Well, I am not the maintainer for the Debian Chicken package, so I
don't know. But unless the more recent versions of Chicken depend on
libraries or library versions that are not present in Debian, it's
probably not that difficult. Actually, the real problem here would be
that the Debian
It seems to me that if Debian provides a Chicken 2.3 package for
stability reasons, then Debian should also provide a 2.3 eggs package
and keep it up to date. Using chicken-setup is inherently unstable
from the perspective of Debian stable, since the eggs are constantly
updated and haven't gone

You make a good point; actually, I would say that Debian needs to
have a package for each individual egg, so that the developer who
wishes to release Debian packages of their Chicken code can have
precise control over dependencies. But then this means that the egg
repository must match egg

That's okay, as long as there is the possibility of back-porting
eggs to older versions.
