 There just one small bugreport on -2, from Chuck, which has been
 fixed, so I think this is it.
 
 There was some delay because I had hoped, after spending the weekend
 and yesterday night hacking on mknetrel, to junk my cygwin-cross tools
 and use mknetrel for packaging Guile, but alas, it appears that it's
 not going to be that way any time soon.
 
 Please upload [if you don't spot some stupid mistake].
 
 
 guile (1.5.6-3) unstable; urgency=low
 
   * Bugfix for native buildscript.
   * Development package named guile-devel (previously libguile-devel).

Uploaded.  I made some corrections to the setup.hints, I hope that was okay.

guile-devel:
WAS: requires: cygwin
  IS: requires: cygwin guile libguile14
WHY: usr/bin/guile-config is a guile script, so it needs guile.exe from
  the 'guile' package.  Also, usr/lib/libguile.dll.a is pretty
  useless without cygguile-14.dll -- from the 'libguile14' package.

guile-doc:
WAS: requires: cygwin
  IS: requires: texinfo
WHY: it's all info files.  they don't need cygwin, they need info.exe
  from the 'texinfo' package. (texinfo requires cygiwn, but we don't
  list subsidiary requirements).

libguile14:
WAS: requires: cygwin
  IS: requires: cygwin libtool-devel
WHY: cygguile-14.dll depends on cygltdl-3.dll, which is currently
  distributed in the libtool-devel package.(*)

(*) This kinda sucks, because requiring libtool-devel then causes all of 
the following to be installed:
   autoconf-devel
   automake-devel
   autoconf (wrapper)
   automake (wrapper)
   libtool (wrapper)

Mebbe I ought split out the dll...but right now, libtool-devel IS 
required by libguile14, or cygguile-14.dll will break.

Anyway, don't worry about correcting the setup.hints if they are 
included inside the -src archive -- just don't forget to fix them before 
the next regularly scheduled update of the guile ensemble.

Ok?  You're fixing my bugs, don't do that again.
;-) Thanks a lot!

I think they're all ok, so I'll fix the hint files for -4.

Yes.

Yes, I wondered about this (a lilypond user flagged this problem just
a minute ago).  But I guess there's no way around this, for guile?

 It's a short term problem.  [..]  Once those are fixed, I'll release
 another test release -- with cygltdl-3.dll split out into, oh, I
 dunno, a 'libltdl3' package.

Ok.  Then it's fine.

 However, in the short term, early adopters of guile are going to get
 slammed with lots of extraneous stuff.

Yes.  Too bad.

 How does it feel to be the first person to publish a cygwin package
 that uses libltdl?

So I'm the first.  No wonder this took me so long.  Otoh, getting less
patches rejected can do wonders for your feelings too.  %-/
