Re: [Chicken-users] srfi-19, srfi-29 and required-extension-version

[Ivan Raikov]

Hello,
 
   Thanks for reporting this. I have changed the version comparison
procedure in chicken-setup to compare versions numerically, but this
was after release 3.1.0. The issue is fixed in the development
snapshots, and the upcoming release 3.2.0.
