GNU Guile 2.9.9 (beta) released

Andy Wingo — January 13, 2020

We are delighted to announce the release of GNU Guile 2.9.9. This is the ninth and final pre-release of what will eventually become the 3.0 release series.

See the release announcement for full details and a download link.

This release fixes a number of bugs, omissions, and regressions. Notably, it fixes the build on 32-bit systems.

We plan to release a final Guile 3.0.0 on 17 January: this Friday! Please do test this prerelease; build reports, good or bad, are very welcome; send them to guile-devel@gnu.org. If you know you found a bug, please do send a note to bug-guile@gnu.org. Happy hacking!
