It has been more than a year now, and things have changed :-)

I've been using SLOTed guile since then, and I didn't notice a lot of
issues. Some of them has been fixed and pushed either in the ebuild or
into eselect-guile.

emacs support is actually not broken, it is simply not provided by the
distribution tarball for guile-2. It was a debugger for guile-1.8
which is not usable as the internal changed a lot between those two
releases. So I just removed any emacs related things in guile-2.0.x
ebuilds.

I cannot reproduce anymore the build failure related to threads with
guile-2.0.6, I haven't test with guile-2.0.5. It seems this has been
fixed somehow.


So we have good news, guile can now be shipped to everyone, as all
major issues have been fixed. I'm planning to unmask guile-1.8.8-r2,
guile-2.0.6 and eselect-guile-1.0 during the next week-end for
enabling full testing for guile overlay users.

After a month or so, I think we will be able to push it to the main
tree :-)


There is still bug 351991 [1] concerning dev-scheme/greg. The only use
of greg in the tree is for running tests of sci-chemistry/coot. I
assigned the bug to sci@ herd 3 days ago, so I think it will get
adresses in the upcoming weeks.


Thanks for your interest in the Gentoo Lisp project,
