I'm trying to install with scheme with emacs + geiser, and get on the geiser:

Starting Geiser REPL for chicken ... process-lines: ~/lisp/chicken/bin/csi exited with status 70

so I remembered that I forgot to configure what was requested here(https://wiki.call-cc.org/emacs):

  1. Install the necessary support eggs.

$ chicken-install -s apropos chicken-doc

  1. Update the Chicken documentation database.

$ cd `csi -p '(chicken-home)'`

$ curl http://3e8.org/pub/chicken-doc/chicken-doc-repo.tgz | sudo tar zx

However when executing:

cd `csi -p '(chicken-home)'`

Nothing happens, so check what I'm getting with:

./csi -p '(chicken-home)'

And I receive the following:

something@something:~/lisp/chicken/bin$ ./csi -p '(chicken-home)'

Error: unbound variable: chicken-home

    Call history:

    <eval>    (##sys#load-library (##core#quote expand))
    <syntax>      (chicken-home)
    <eval>    (chicken-home)    <--

Note:

Chicken version: CHICKEN 5

OS: LINUX

UP

In version 5 I discovered that it is necessary to:

(import (chicken platform))

to call:

(chicken-home)

however I downloaded it:

curl http://3e8.org/pub/chicken-doc/chicken-doc-repo.tgz | sudo tar zx

to the correct directory(chicken-home):

/home/something/lisp/chicken//share/chicken/

and yet I receive:

"Starting Geiser REPL for chicken ... process-lines: ~/lisp/chicken/bin/csi exited with status 70"

I was able to solve the problem, first I was using this file:

http://download-mirror.savannah.gnu.org/releases/geiser/0.10/geiser-0.10.tar.gz

It's broken, I always get:

"csi exited with status 70"

So I downloaded the git version:

git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/geiser.git

So I try to start the geise:

M-x run-geiser RET chicken RET

And I get the error:

"car: Symbol’s function definition is void: seq-filter"

Then there is something happening in the file "geiser/elisp/geiser-chicken.el", they forgot to add the line:

(require 'seq)

Now it's working.

!Important: In emacs <= version 24 "seq-filter" does not even exist. I do not know the exact version that was added "seq-filter", from what I saw in the Emacs documentation, not documented by version, at least I did not find it, so I do not know very well, but it was tested that in Emacs 24 there is no such library.
