[cl-debian] Bug#382582: closed by Peter Van Eynde <pvaneynd at debian.org> (Bug#382582: fixed in common-lisp-controller 6.3)

[Faré]

Hum, the fix in c-l-c 6.3 was a bit of a "throw the baby with the bath
water" kind of fix.
Now, no program that depends on c-l-c managed library will work, unless
we explicitly call common-lisp-controller:clc-require for every such library
(as if it were statically decided which libraries one uses from c-l-c and which
one has a private hacking copy of).

My take is:
* always enable a wrapper.
* the wrapper may only do a "reduced mapping" (restricted to
/usr/share/common-lisp/source) or an "extended mapping" depending on
some various runtime variable
* the wrapper may export a mechanism such as
cl-launch::exclude-from-cache to enable users to explicitly exclude
some directory trees from their magic caches.
