bug#19180: guile bug#19180: vacuum_weak_hash_table error

[Anand Mohanadoss]

Dear Linas,

Thank you so much!  I did indeed miss your earlier responses and I appreciate your reaching out to me!

I downloaded the current guile code in git and will give it a try.  But, given that this is not a stable release, I am not sure if we can really use it for our purposes.

Do you or Ludovic know when a stable 2.2 version will be released?  From stability point of you, would it be better to use a patched version of 2.0.11 that handles the case we noticed (e.g. don't attempt to remove items from hash table if len = 0)? 

Thanks,

Anand

I've seen the same bug; I tried to apply Ludo's patch, and discovered that the current guile code, in git, no longer even has the  scm_fixup_weak_alist or the vacuum_weak_hash_table calls anywhere in them.  Also .. my version of the bug goes away.

The code in git seems to be guile-2.2, which has not yet been released -- so your mileage may vary..  but you certainly won't get that error print message any more.
