README.CVS

   1 When Guile is obtained from CVS, a few extra steps must be taken
   2 before the usual configure, make, make install.  You will need to have
   3 up-to-date versions of the tools listed in HACKING (see below),
   4 correctly installed.  i.e., they must be found in the current PATH and
   5 not shadowed or otherwise broken by files left behind from other
   6 versions.
   7
   8 "up-to-date" means the latest released versions at the time that Guile
   9 was obtained from CVS.  Sometimes older or newer versions will work.
  10
  11 In addition to the guile/guile-core module that holds the main
  12 sources, you also need the two modules guile/guile-scripts and
  13 guile/workbook.  For example, you can use this command to check out
  14 all three modules:
  15
  16   $ cvs -d:ext:anoncvs@savannah.gnu.org:/cvsroot/guile \
  17     co guile/guile-core guile/guile-scripts guile/workbook
  18
  19 Then you must run the autogen.sh script in guile/guile-core:
  20
  21   $ cd guile/guile-core
  22   $ ./autogen.sh
  23
  24 For more information about hacking Guile and some troubleshooting
  25 hints, see the file HACKING.  It can be found in guile/guile-core and
  26 guile/workbook/build/dist-files/.
