FTP Snapshots ========================================================
|
|
|
|
Each night, we make the current Guile sources available via anonymous
|
|
FTP. Please keep in mind that these sources are strictly
|
|
experimental; they will usually not be well-tested, and may not even
|
|
compile on some systems. They may contain interfaces which will
|
|
change. They will usually not be of sufficient quality for use by
|
|
people not comfortable hacking the innards of Guile. Caveat!
|
|
|
|
However, we're providing them anyway for several reasons. We'd like
|
|
to encourage people to get involved in developing Guile. People
|
|
willing to use the bleeding edge of development can get earlier access
|
|
to new, experimental features. Patches submitted relative to recent
|
|
snapshots will be easier for us to evaluate and install, since the
|
|
patch's original sources will be closer to what we're working with.
|
|
And it allows us to start testing features earlier.
|
|
|
|
Nightly snapshots of the Guile development sources are available via
|
|
anonymous FTP from ftp.red-bean.com, as
|
|
/pub/guile/snapshots/guile-core-snap.tar.gz.
|
|
|
|
Via the web, that's:
|
|
ftp://ftp.red-bean.com/pub/guile/snapshots/guile-core-snap.tar.gz
|
|
For getit, that's:
|
|
ftp.red-bean.com:/pub/guile/snapshots/guile-core-snap.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
The snapshot FTP site is mirrored at the following locations:
|
|
Austria: ftp://ftp.aec.at/pub/guile
|
|
Japan: ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/lang/scheme/guile
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build the snapshot, you will need to have autoconf, automake, and
|
|
libtool installed on your system; the recommended versions are listed
|
|
in README.
|
|
|
|
After you have unpacked the tar file, run the command `./autogen.sh'.
|
|
This builds the configure script, Makefile.in, and other derived files
|
|
used by the build system.
