<nalaginrut>hi, folks! Any better way to detect site-ccache-dir? (%site-ccache-dir) is hardcoded with the guile version, I want to detect ccache dir for the specified effective version
<Arsen>just run that versions' guile
<Arsen>or, alternatively:
<Arsen>~$ pkg-config --variable=siteccachedir guile-3.0
<Arsen>/usr/lib64/guile/3.0/site-ccache
<nalaginrut>nice way!
<Arsen>pkg-config is the intended way to look up information about a guile version when working as a dependency
<Arsen>so, in a build system for instance
<nalaginrut>thank you very much, I think it's good enough
<nalaginrut>I use pkg-config in Makefile
<mala>A foolish newbie schemer question (but might be Guile-specific). I'm reading stderr in this code: https://danny.spesh.com/tmp/decrypt-authinfo.html ... it all seems to work fine, but I don't actually get anything out of stderr (even though it's definitely redirecting from the default stderr)
<mala>I'm wondering whether I need to flush, or unbuffer something, or pause until the port closes, but not sure where to start.
