Difficulty Installing on Fedora #3153

Description

First issue, which is technically with libctl, but is solvable, is the version of guile installed with dnf installs as guile3.0, which autoconfig seemingly can't recognize except with export GUILE=/path/to/guile3.0, which in my case was export GUILE=/usr/bin/guile3.0.

The issue specific to MEEP is that it is seemingly impossible to get autoconfig to recognize libctl's location. To the degree I go the following build output:

checking how to activate readline in Guile... cannot
checking for libctl dir... /usr/local/share/libctl
checking for gen-ctl-io... gen-ctl-io
checking for ctl_get_vector3 in -lctl... no
configure: error: Couldn't find the required libctl library.

Any idea what is going on? Worth noting, on Fedora, the conda install seems to work, but I'd prefer to either build from source or install via pip rather than conda.
