Self complied from srpm's including guile-devel

do you want me to set up one system w/ guile 1.8 & 1 with 2.0?

The 2.0 problem won't go away and I'd prefer to concentrate on 2.0.

Right now I dual boot one system to get back to an operable gnucash so I'm
in no hurry.

do you want (large) straces in addition to the stdio debug?

Ted
