• Guile documentation with Geiser in GNU Emacs

    From Axel Reichert@21:1/5 to All on Mon Mar 4 17:22:09 2024

    Hello,

    I have installed Guile 3.0.8 (including the doc, dev, and libs
    packages), Geiser 0.10, and Emacs 28.2 (yes, all old, from a Linux
    distribution based on Debian-stable).

    "guile" is in the OS's path and runs fine from the command line. When
    running M-x geiser in Emacs and selecting Guile as the Scheme
    implementation, a working REPL buffer comes up.

    Also, when trying C-c C-d d after, say

    (expt

    in a Guile buffer (major mode Scheme, minor mode Geiser) a buffer
    *Geiser documentation* comes us in modes "Geiser Doc View" with a brief explanation of the procedure. This buffer sports a clickable "[manual]"
    button, but after clicking it just gives

    Not documented as a symbol: expt

    in the message area. The *Messages* buffer gives some more information:

    Processing Info node ‘(r5rs)Index’...
    Composing main Info directory...done
    Cannot access Info node ‘(r5rs)Index’
    Processing Info node ‘(r5rs)Index’...done
    info-lookup: Not documented as a symbol: expt

    What do I need to fix to get this button working?

    Best regards

    Axel
