I noticed this with debian jessie packages, then took those out, then compiled and same error messages:

john AT toolbench64 [culture_shock]gschem
Backtrace:
In ice-9/boot-9.scm:
  157: 1 [catch #t #<catch-closure 2512c00> ...]
In unknown file:
    ?: 0 [apply-smob/1 #<catch-closure 2512c00>]

ERROR: In procedure apply-smob/1:
ERROR: In procedure scm_to_utf8_stringn: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting string): #f

All guile 1.8 removed:
un  guile-1.8-dev             <none>                        <none>

I found reference to guile being trouble after version 2.0.9, so installed these from debian oldstable:

ii  guile-2.0                  2.0.5+1-3                     amd64    GNU extension language and Scheme interpreter
ii  guile-2.0-dev             2.0.5+1-3                     amd64

also removed all contents of /usr/local/share/gEDA, then rebuilt and did sudo make install...

Do I  need to get recent guile and compile it with special options?
