[Bese-devel] can't load ucw-boxset anymore

[Attila Lendvai]

the problem seems to be with loading a recent slime with asdf when common
lisp controller is acting in the background.

in my experience clc was a pita, and ended up uninstalling and managing cl
packages myself.

as a quick fix you may try:

sbcl --no-sysinit --no-userinit --load start.lisp

please report back if it works, because then i'll update the note at the
beginning of start.lisp.

i handle the similar case of asdf-binary-location like this:

(when (asdf:find-system :asdf-binary-locations nil)
  (write-line "*** ASDF Binary Locations detected, we'll try to disable it
for Slime/Swank")
  (terpri)
  ;; turn off asdf-binary-locations for slime if it's happened to be loaded
  (eval `(pushnew (list (merge-pathnames #P"slime/"
*ucw-boxset-home-directory*) nil)
          ,(read-from-string "asdf:*source-to-target-mappings*") :test
#'equal)))

if someone knows the equivalent for clc, we could add that to start.lisp,
too.
