Re: guile needed ?????

[emim limam]

Ok it seems i am not installed guile. But as i said
before i have it in my usr/share folder. 
Now the question is how could i install from usr/share
folder. I also downloaded guile-1.6.0.tar.gz in case
it could be handy. 
The command guile --version returned to me "command
not found" message. 
thx for your help
