Re: gEDA-user: Problem installing RPMs on Red Hat 9

[Wojciech Kazubski <wk@ire.pw.edu.pl>]

Hi!

RH9 had guile 1.6.0 without guile-ltdl and the packages were built on Fedora 
Core1 with guile 1.6.4. There are some solutions:
1) I have prepared guile-ltdl rpm package (see the very bottom of my gEDA 
software page http://www.sp5pbe.waw.pl/~sp5smk/geda.html or
2) try to upgrade guile with FC1 package
