Hello all,

I've created a review request for compat-guile1.8:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=868263

Once the compat package lands in rawhide, I will leave some time for the
transition (I may work on the required patches if time allows me). After that,
guile (now version 1.8) will become 2.0.x.

I've already tried patching a few packages and there seem to be no real
problems, unlike patching the old apps for the new guile.

Affected packages:
aisleriot
autogen
coot
denemo
drgeo
freehoo
freetalk
geda
gnubik
gnucash
gnurobots
gnutls
graphviz
libctl
libgeda
lilypond
mdk
rumor
TeXmacs
trackballs
xbindkeys

Cheers,
