[Cl-perec-devel] Loading cl-perec

[Ken McKee]

I updated cl-perec and downloaded contextl. I still get:
      The name "METACOPY-WITH-CONTEXTL" does not designate any package.
       [Condition of type SB-KERNEL:SIMPLE-PACKAGE-ERROR]

A posting to metacopy-devel says:

Can standard versions of slime and asdf handle the metacopy-with- 
contextl package?
Where should the metacopy-with-contextl package be defined?
