Wak fmt

[danielsz]

Hi,

I was repeating the steps from a Akku.scm demo and tried to run it with sagittarius, there seems to be an error with one of the imports of the wak fmt dependency. The demo does work out of the box with guile, plt-r6rs and chez-scheme, so I'm not sure where to ask about the error (Akku.scm or here). Do you know what the problem is?

The author of Akku.scm explained that chez-srfi has special support for Racket and guile. Not sure what the correct course of action for sagittarius would be.

Sagittarius supports a large number of SRFIs and SRFI-6 is one of them. I think in this case, it'd be better not to install chez-srfi or at least remove it from the load path.

An alternative way would be using -A command line option instead of -L. Though not sure if this is applicable for akku.

This makes sense, thank you. Akku.scm will probably address this in the context of issue 19.
