[asdf-devel] ASDF 2.016.2

[Chun Tian (binghe)]

Hi, Faré

I don't think the new feature for RMCL really working:

? (compile-asdf)
;Compiling "Macintosh HD:users:binghe:Lisp:packages:asdf:asdf.lisp"...
#P"Macintosh HD:users:binghe:Lisp:packages:asdf:asdf.cfsl"
NIL

? )

? asdf::*asdf-version*
"2.016.2"

As above test shows, I started a clean RMCL without ASDF and then manually compile&load ASDF 2.016.2, pushing only one system directory (as POSIX namestring) to asdf:*central-registry* and it fails to interpret ...

How can I debug this?
