[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#499711: guile versions

[Peter Clifton]

gEDA now requires guile 1.8.x, and as far as I know, all gnetlist
backends have been fixed to work with it. The FAQ entry referring to
bugs against Guile 1.8.X is probably out of date, and a red-herring.

This bug "probably" relates to a back-end which has poor recursion
practice, and ends up using a lot of execution stack to produce the
netlist for a complex design.

You will need to know which specific backend, and which design - was
used in order to confirm / deny whether this bug still exists. (I recall
"some" backends have been improved to use less stack space.)
