[cells-gtk-devel] Error on SBCL: Unable to load foreign library:libgobject-2.0

[Jeff Cunningham]

I had a similar problem with cmucl, maybe the solution is the same: try making the load-foreign-library function in cffi/src/cffi-sbcl.lisp return T

(defun %load-foreign-library (name)
  "Load the foreign library NAME."
  (sys::load-object-file name)
  t)
