Following on from the discussion in this thread -

I have now got -
guile 2.0.9
guile 1.8.8
slib 3b2
gnucash 2.4.11
"happily" running in a Slackware 14.1 environment. Presupposes all the other pre-reqs are already installed

How?
for guile I changed guile.SlackBuild to compile to /usr/guile/1.8 instead of /usr. Really I should have renamed the package as well i.e guile1.8 or something like.
Code:
CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS" \
./configure \
--prefix=/usr/guile/1.8 \
--libdir=/usr/guile/1.8/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
--infodir=/usr/guile/1.8/info \
--mandir=/usr/guile/1.8/man \
--with-threads \
--disable-static \
--disable-rpath \
--disable-error-on-warning \
--build=$ARCH-slackware-linux
for slib I changed the doinst.sh to reflect where guile 1.8.8 is
Code:
1c1
< chroot . /usr/bin/guile -q -s /usr/doc/@PRGNAM@-@VERSION@/guile-slibcat.script
---
> chroot . /usr/guile/1.8/bin/guile -q -s /usr/doc/@PRGNAM@-@VERSION@/guile-slibcat.script
and set up some environment variables which I think were
Code:
export GUILE=/usr/guile/1.8/bin/guile
export GUILE_CONFIG=/usr/guile/1.8/bin/guile-config
and possibly changed the path to include export GUILE=/usr/guile/1.8/bin
For gnucash I added the following to gnucash.SlackBuild immediately before it runs configure.
Code:
export GUILE=/usr/guile/1.8/bin/guile
export GUILE_CONFIG=/usr/guile/1.8/bin/guile-config
export GUILE_INCS=-I/usr/guile/1.8/include/
export GUILE_LIBS=-L/usr/guile/1.8/lib/
export PATH=/usr/guile/1.8/bin:/usr/local/aikbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin:/usr/lib/kde4/libexec:/usr/lib/qt/bin:/usr/share/texmf/bin
cd src/bin
sed -i.bak "/gnucash_LDADD = /a /usr/guile/1.8/lib/libguile.la \\\\" Makefile.am
sed -i.bak "/libgncmod-report-gnome.la/a /usr/guile/1.8/lib/libguile.la \\\\" Makefile.in
cd $TMP
cd $PRGNAM-$VERSION
The reason why I added the two sed commands to patch the Makefiles is that I couldn't resolve a linking problem for libguile.so.17 in any other way. Unfortunately I've lost the error message so I can't paste it here.
I'll need to go through this again on a clean install of 14.1 as I'm bound to have left something out.
