Problems in Lilipond and Guile -- #746005
Quack,
I think the release team should have been involved much much earlier.
It seems having Lilypond working with recent Guile before the release is
not going to happen. Even if it built properly there would maybe have
runtime bugs to solve.
If people are willing to maintain Guile 1.8 into stable during another
release lifetime, I guess the release team would be ok with it. Maybe it
would be possible to provide a backport of Guile 2.x and newer Lilypond
later (when it works) and drop Guile 1.8 and current Lilypond from
stable in a subsequent point release. This could be announced in the
release notes from the start, so no surprise.
Anyway, I'm Cc-ing the release team so they don't discover the problem
much later.
