[Gcl-devel] CLC for GCL

[Michael Koehne]

Moin Guru's,

  I have ASDF (mostly) CLC (nearly) up and running - so my next GCL/ANSI
  patches will have the goal to gain some libraries up and running, that
  come with Debian CLC and ASDF install. 

  `/usr/lib/common-lisp/bin/gcl.sh install-clc` appreantly went fine,
  after a lot of GCL patches that came after pathnames and formatter.
  But a `clc-send-command recompile port gcl` fails with :

>(c-l-c:compile-library 'port)

Loading /usr/share/common-lisp/systems/port.asd

  I wonder why CLC defined all those logical pathnames, when ASDF
  does'nt see them anymore. There might be some place, where I'm
  translating them to physical pathnames to early. But truename
  has to resolve logical pathnames and even symlink, as the above
  pathname points from /usr/share/common-lisp/systems/port.asd to
  ../source/port/port.asd.

  any idea, what's going wrong would be nice - also: what are the
  addresses for the CLC and ASDF mailing lists ? I'll certainly
  have some more questions around this complex.

Bye Michael
