Hello,
I posted this to the gnucash mailing list but never
got a solution. It may be a guile problem. I hope
you can help.
When trying to run gnucash, I receive an error:
kwmc@bluecat:~$ gnucash
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load
path
I tried a few things:
kwmc@bluecat:~$ su -
Password:
root@bluecat:~# ln -s
/usr/local/share/guile/1.4/ice-9/
/usr/local/share/guile/ice-9
root@bluecat:~# exit
logout
kwmc@bluecat:~$ gnucash
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load
path
kwmc@bluecat:~$ su -
Password:
root@bluecat:~# ln -s /usr/local/share/guile
/usr/share/guile
root@bluecat:~# exit
logout
kwmc@bluecat:~$ gnucash
ERROR: Unbound variable: simple-format
Setting the GUILE_LOAD_PATH environment variable gives
the same unbound variable error.
Guile seems to work okay:
kwmc@bluecat:~$ su -
Password:
root@bluecat:~# rm /usr/local/share/guile/ice-9/
root@bluecat:~# rm /usr/share/guile
root@bluecat:~# exit
logout
kwmc@bluecat:~$ guile
guile> (use-modules (ice-9 slib))
guile> (require 'primes)
guile> (prime? 7)
#t
guile>
kwmc@bluecat:~$ guile -v
Guile 1.4
