<pre>Hi,<br>thank you for this great tool, as a lisp beginner I really appreciate the amount of work done here to make the programming life easier.<br><br>One question:<br>the following autogenerated file<br><a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/clbuild/clbuild/dependencies" target="_blank">http://common-lisp.net/project/clbuild/clbuild/dependencies</a><br>
<br>states the following line:<br>elephant alexandria babel bordeaux-threads cffi cl-base64 closer-mop clsql ieee-floats lift md5 postmodern split-sequence trivial-features trivial-utf-8 usocket<br><br>which didn`t work for me.<br>
<br>I had a working setup, then made a clbuild update.<br>After that, the elephant 1.0 didn`t work anymore, mostly it didn`t compile without errors.<br>Not knowing what caused the proble, I tried the following combinations:<br>
<br>Sbcl 1.26, 1.29 on linux debian x86_32<br>Elephant 1.0 1.0a2 0.9<br>cffi 10.0.4 10.0.5<br><br>BerkeleyDB 4.5, 4.6, 4.7<br><br>Nothing worked, failing to compile Elephant.<br><br>The answer: elephant does not depend on cffi. <br>
<br>Clbuild installs uffi.asd into the clbuild/systems folder as a symlink to cffi-uffi-compat.asd (or a similar name).<br>After providing the right uffi.asd symlink, everything works great.<br><br>I lost 2 days of my life trying to figure that, really.<br>
<br>I would like to kindly ask the maintainers, for the sake of newbs like me, <br>to have mercy and remove the cffi compatibility from the elephant, or at least not to symlink the cffi-uffi-compat.<br><br>Thank you very much.<br>
