[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello, 
I saw the email about the 2.1.6 testing release. I previously
submitted a bug report about Guile 2.0.13 failing, but this build is
giving me different errors so I wanted to submit this as well. I ran
the following commands:
autoconfautomake./configuremake
I have attached text files containing the output of the commands, when
they produced output.
Thanks,saffronsnail

HI saffron,

I have been able to get guile-2.1.8 to build on FreeBSD 11.0.

I had to “pkg install” : pkgconf, gmake, boehm-gc-threaded

Then to work around following config issue, I “pkg install autotools”
Edit autoconf.ac and find “bdw-gc”, change to “bdw-gc-threaded”
PKG_CHECK_MODULES([BDW_GC], [bdw-gc-threaded >= 7.2])

Then run autoconf, then ./configure —prefix=/usr/local, then gmake (make did not work for me), but takes hours.

Then “make check”.  

Matt
