<jfred>daviid: ahhhh, I see - thanks!
<jfred>right, I was using <adw-application> in a test application I was having trouble with before poking around at the repl, which would have initialized libadwaita for me... though, hmm: https://paste.sr.ht/~jfred/44fd76c3a9e39e6ceb20b8bda65c06f764fe9353
<daviid>jfred: i can't reproduce this error, are you using guix?
<jfred>daviid: I am, running this in 'guix shell -Df guix.scm' in my project with this manifest and these channels: https://paste.sr.ht/~jfred/c028915968cd3bbb2d7a62940ce7cdd92e027160
<jfred>possible I'm missing some dependencies?
<jfred>s/manifest/package definition/
<jfred>worth noting I'm using sway on my guix system, not gnome
<jfred>(it's using a local-file source so you might not be able to run that as-is, but I'm using -D on guix shell so maybe you can?
<daviid>jfred: well, i unfortunately have to (highly) recommend you to use another distro, at least temporarily, i recommend you either host debian, or run debian and host guix, other distros works fine too, freebsd iirc ...
<daviid>jfred: fwiw https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-user/2024-08/msg00013.html
<jfred>...ahh, drat
<amano>Holyyyyyy moly.
<amano>Is there a better package manager than guile hall?
<amano>I looked into akku.scm, but it is not for installing guile packages onto linux distributions....
<amano>What about clojure persistent data structures in guile?
<amano>It seems R7RS large's mappings SRFI is clojure persistent map.
<rlb>wingo: fwiw, I'm going to assume the 3.0.10 32-bit issue isn't likely to be fixed in the next few days, and start working on the debian unstable downgrade soon. Please shout if that's incorrect.
<graywolf>Hi :) How can I tell in syntax-case if something is a symbol? When I do syntax->datum, I am getting (quote a).
<sneek>Welcome back graywolf, you have 1 message!
<sneek>graywolf, daviid says: fwiw, here is another possible way to handle keywords args in syntax-case - https://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/grip.git/tree/grip/goops.scm, line 24 for an appropriate comment, then line 62-72 for the define-method* definition
<graywolf>daviid: uff, thanks for the link, the code will take me a while to process
<daviid>graywolf: welcome
