I have not followed the transition myself. But searching through Debian bugs, I found https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=760986 which says Guile 1.8 is no longer maintained upstream, and has not been since 2010. Distros generally try to avoid packaging stuff that is not actively maintained upstream. hope that helps raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi | http://raju.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Blog _______________________________________________ Texmacs-dev mailing list Texmacs-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/texmacs-dev
