[asdf-install-devel] asdf-install port.lisp and installer.lisp won't compile

[Gary King]

Hi Phil,

Thanks for the information. As some of the other threads have mentioned, I'm hardly able to maintain ASDF-install right now (and though I once deluded myself that this was a temporary condition, it seems likely to stay that way (my apologies to all).

If you're interested in maintaining it, please let me know.

I'd also recommend checking out clbuild and QuickLisp.

regards,
