<please_help>There might be a problem with the latest guile's build script. A sed invokation resolves to "sed -e "s,[@]GUILE_LIBS[@],-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -lcrypt -lm,g"" but the commas obviously have to be escaped. Can anyone confirm or deny this is due to new build scripts?
<mark_weaver>please_help: it's not new, but apparently people are running into the problem for the first time
<please_help>I see. Pretty weird then.
<mark_weaver>can you try replacing those commas with pipes '|' in meta/Makefile.am and see if that fixes the problem for you?
<mark_weaver>we'll probably commit that change soon
<mark_weaver>(after making that change, you'll have to rerun "autoreconf -vfi" and then rerun configure)
<please_help>I actually get the files via emerge so I can't make the modification directly right now, but there's no reason why it shouldn't fix the problem.

<frogsus>Say, if I write an application in Python and I want to make it extensible by users, can my program make use of Guile extension system?
