[cc-ing gambit's mailing list, so that gambit users/developers can advise us on the recent changes affecting affecting geiser in 4.9.4] Hi Tara, On Sun, Jan 16 2022, Tara Lorenz wrote:

Hello all,

i experience a problem with the recently released Gambit 4.9.4. One of the problems is that the builtin geiser module is named differently now, '_geiser' instead of 'gambit/geiser'. The attached patch seems to fix the problem. I have to admit that i didn't test whether older versions of gambit still work though. To make things easy, i renamed the namespace used in the geiser provided scheme-implementation to match the new upstream one. I don't know if this might lead to some controversy.

I don't use gambit myself, but i guess we could just tag a new version of the geiser-gambit package and redirect users having problems to previous geiser-gambit versions. One thing that we should do together with this patch is set geiser-gambit-minimum-version to v4.9.4, though. I'm waiting a couple of days in case someone sees a problem with that.

The other problem i ran into was, that load-file (C-c C-l) no longer works. It seems to me that including "~~lib/gambit/prim/prim#.scm" isn't enough, 'load' will still be unknown. Thus leading to an error message complaining about an '#!unbound' var where 'load' is expected.

So you patch below doesn't fix this problem, right? Any ideas from other gambit experts? Thanks! Cheers, jao
