Hi,
guile-native 1.8.2 fails for me with distribution 'openmoko'. I get the same 
error as this one: http://tinderbox.openembedded.net/packages/96906/

guile-native 1.8.6 builds fine though. anyone unhappy about dumping 1.8.2 ?

Regards
Robert

I guess you should take this up with the openmoko people.  Presumably
they have set 1.8.2 as their preferred version for a reason and it would
be worth checking that 1.8.6 really does work (rather than just build)
for them before changing it.

As a general rule I am not in favour of removing old recipes unless they
are obviously and grossly broken in such a way that nobody could
possibly be using them.  In other words, the fact that the recipe
happens not to build in one particular configuration is not, in itself,
a compelling reason to delete it.  I haven't looked at the 1.8.2 error
closely enough to say whether that's the case here or not.

I would like to see this becoming an OE policy.
