Heya,

sorry for my late reply, and thx a lot for your help.
i was compiling 2.0.7 and had the same issue, then i was finally lookin
at the log and figured out that it is because of a "umlaut" char in the
parent directory-name where i tried to build guile.
The directory was called "Arbeitsfläche" ("desktop" in german) and in
the log i saw the files could not be found because the dir-name was not
correctly converted (into UTF-8 i guess). The dir name was shown as
"Arbeitsf??che"...

Btw i uploaded 2.0.7 packages to the GNU PPA @ launchpad
https://launchpad.net/~dns/+archive/gnu/+packages?field.name_filter=guile-2.0&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=

Best regards,
DNS
