svn commit: r526077 - in head/lang: . guile1

[Muhammad Moinur Rahman]

Hi bapt,
The problem is lang/guile points to version 1.X so by default we tend do a mistake of installing guile which is actually not the latest version. I am working guile3 and had a plan to update lang/guile to version 3.X so that no confusion arises. Unfortunately the codebase seems totally different and requires lots of changes. Am working on it.
There are lots of applications which actually depends on guile1. Specially related to ham radio. Due to which we cannot remove guile/guile1.

Kind Regards,
bofh
