[cl-debian] Bug#382582: common-lisp-controller: c-l-c fails to exclude /usr/lib/sbcl and such from cache

Package: common-lisp-controller
Version: 6.2
Severity: minor

While compiling a program with sbcl and c-l-c, I realized that
c-l-c wasn't excluding directories such as /usr/lib/sbcl from its cache,
recompiling in-cache fasl's for source code instead of using
the precompiled fasl's. Same applies for other lisp implementations.
cl-launch fixed a similar with its function exclude-from-cache.

Note: if c-l-c ends up using the very same mechanism as cl-launch,
it would be nice if the interface was similar enough that cl-launch
could just import the relevant symbols in a #+common-lisp-controller.
In any case, you're welcome to "borrow" code from cl-launch.

PS: I see you depend on a package named realpath. In debian systems,
readlink --canonicalize now does the same thing. Of course, in older Linux
systems, BSD systems, etc., readlink doesn't have option --canonicalize. Sigh.

PPS: unrelatedly, I found more bugs in cl-launch and ECL when using
a system, and the bug has a long reach when the system has dependencies. Sigh.
