Hi, I think that when Guile is part of a OS distribution (for example as a Debian or RPM package) and is thus installed in /usr, then it should add /usr/local/share/guile (and /usr/local/share/guile/site?) to its default load path. Is that reasonable? Where should this be done? I think it is basically a packaging problem so that the Debian or RPM maintainer should take care to get the default load path right, but the base Guile package should of course provide enough support for doing this cleanly. Do we have enough support? I think the GUILE_LOAD_PATH variable should be reserved for the user. - Marius
