Bugzilla Bug 163349

Doing a revdep-rebuild  (autogen was recompiled due to a breakage with
libguile) configure script of autogen-5.8.3 breaks when testing for libguile
with following error:
checking whether using shell scripts... yes
checking whether using autogen as a daemon... no
checking whether libguile can be linked with... no
configure: error: Cannot find working libguile

A re-emerge of dev-scheme/guile-1.8.1 didn't help

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
autogen rebuild failed

Expected Results:  
autogen rebuilded

SCM version of autogen configure failed due to more recent guile version
installed

Created an attachment (id=107848) [edit]
patched ebuild to fix SCM version issue

This should fix the SCM version issues by sed'ing the configure included tests

Works for me.

changing the configure doesnt mean the result actually works

ive added 5.8.8 instead

As far as I could see this was working - Anyway, this new version has a 108 in
the configure so it's even better for me  ;-)  

it's still pooping out.

different issue; file new report

FYI: The issue is linked with new guile 1.8.1-r1 . Broken guile 1.8.1 (with the
econfigure not taking use flag in account and using defaults) works fine... 

For sure, autogen need deprecated flag on guile (and guile needs discouraged to
compile with deprecated) but something else is needed from default configure,
since autogen will seg fault during build using guile-r1 with only these
flags... and not with default broken configure from 1.8.1 options...

Anyway, I re-close this one and let some else fill adequate bug report
