[cl-debian] Bug#350942: cl-swank: slime connection fails

[Giovanni Gigante]

Package: cl-swank
Version: 1:20051227-1
Severity: important


I have sbcl 0.9.7.1-2sarge24 and cl-swank 20051227-1.
The problem is: when i try to connect from emacs (m-x 
slime-connect), i always get this message in emacs message 
buffer:
error in process filter: if: Wrong number of arguments: nil, 12

and slime does not work.
I have tried with several versions of emacs and slime, but I always get 
this result. So I suppose it is a problem on the swank side.
On the web, I found this message
http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/slime-devel/2005-December/004427.html
reporting the same problem (note it is using sbcl too), but the 
proposed solution (upgrading emacs) gave no result to me. by the way I 
tried with aquamacs, NTemacs and others (via a ssh tunnel). I don't 
believe it's an emacs problem. Looks more a swank+sbcl problem, so I am 
reporting it here.
