Hello Per,
I think the changes to the Kawa distribution in 2.2 are not properly
reflected in the packaging on OSX by the Homebrew people.
Currently, it's built using this Formula -
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/kawa.rb
I noticed that the readline front-end is not included, and I'm also
not able to import SRFIs.
duncan@furigana:~$ brew install kawa
==> Downloading
https://homebrew.bintray.com/bottles/kawa-2.2.el_capitan.bottle.tar.gz
==> Pouring kawa-2.2.el_capitan.bottle.tar.gz
🍺 /usr/local/Cellar/kawa/2.2: 19 files, 3.5M
duncan@furigana:~$ kawa
#|kawa:1|# (import (srfi 1))
/dev/stdin:1:9: unknown library (srfi 1)
#|kawa:2|# ^A ;; this gets printed instead of cursor movement
I have time this week to go fix it, could you review the build formula
and let me know if there's anything wrong with it? I think it might be
missing some configure flags.
Cheers!

That is plausible/ Kawa 2.2 switched to a new way of making
binary releases, with the jline3 and domterm libraries (as well
as the documentation) bundled. You will have to evaluate if that
makes sense for homebrew. If so you probably the kawa-$(VERSION).zip
rule, or something similar. For most platforms it should just
work to unzip the resulting zip, and optionally create suitable
symlinks and/or adjust the environment.
I want to release a 2.3 release ASAP. This is mainly to update
the documentation and website to refer to git rather than Subversion.
If you find any Mac/Homebrew problems (soon) we can also include those.

The main issue I can see whether you want to bundle JLine3 and DomTerm,
and it so how you handle the dependencies.

The readline front-end is deprecated - I use the JLine3 front.end now.

Nothing comes to mind ...

See what kawa-#(CRESION).zip make rule does.

I made a pull request to Homebrew, I'm waiting to see if they would merge it.
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/8301
In the mean time, anyone wanting a working kawa from homebrew should
use my patched version of the formula:
https://github.com/duncanmak/homebrew-core/commit/7c69640c6422f669af0b1d6e6e898f9c0067a6a7
Enjoy!
