You cannot install Orion within the scsh layout; that's the problem
here ;-) Orion is a program and not a library, which is also specified
in 'install.scm'. For programs, the install-library has other default options defined, among them 'fhs-program' as the default layout. And that's the only layout which defines the 'bin' location. So if you
don't override the layout option, or use 'fhs-program' it works fine.
Maybe this should be documented somewhere... within Orion or the
install-lib, or better both :-)


Ahhh, that is the problem.  I have the scsh libs using the scsh layout.

That's no problem. The libraries can be installed with the scsh layout. The Orion script find's Orion's scm files (in $prefix/share/orion-0.2) itself, so SCSH_LIB_DIRS doesn't need to point to Orion's files, it only needs to point to the libraries Orion uses.

Hmm, maybe defining a default bin directory for the scsh layout might
help with this.

Hm, don't know. Which would be logical? The libraries are installed in $prefix/0.6/scx-0.2 for example. So $prefix/bin or $prefix/0.6/bin or $prefix/0.6/scx-0.2/bin ?? But Michel should decide about this.

Well, I am glad it is not just me. :-)

No problem.
