With the release of guile-3.0.1 that builds fine on Cygwin,
I am thinking to copy the debian layout

https://packages.debian.org/sid/guile-3.0

so to obsoletes the "guile" package and have instead

guile1.8 libguile17     libguile1.8-devel
guile2.0 libguile2.0_22 libguile2.0-devel
guile2.2 libguile2.2_1  libguile2.2-devel
guile3.0 libguile3.0_1  libguile3.0-devel

this should make the life more easy during release and
during future prunig of any older version not used anymore

Of course this will cause that all programs will be versioned

         usr/bin/guild-3.0
         usr/bin/guile-3.0.exe
         usr/bin/guile-tools-3.0


Any problem with that ?

Marco
