[closer-devel] lw-compat dependency of closer-mop

oops, seems like my scanning was too sloppy.

the only problem is that ucw already depends on a lot of packages and
for a moment i played with the idea of using closer-mop. but arnesi
provides a MOPP package and it's already a dependency, so i may just
leave things as they are and do not introduce two more dependencies.

so, there's no actual problem, only a cry for a better package
management for lisp... :)

anyway, thanks for the quick answer and sorry for my sloppiness,
