Subject: [closure-devel] clim-clx
Message-ID: <4844645F.7090707@sbcglobal.net>

Closure failed to load on SBCL 1.0.16, Debian Lenny, saying that it 
couldn't find clim-clx. After some poking around, I fixed this by 
reversing clim-clx and mcclim in the system definition, so


(asdf:defsystem closure
    :depends-on (:mcclim
                 :clim-clx

becomes

(asdf:defsystem closure
    :depends-on (:clim-clx
                 :mcclim

Clim-clx doesn't have its own .asd file (instead being defined in that 
of mcclim), so mcclim must be loaded first. Since asdf apparently 
proceeds backwards through the system dependencies, declaring dependence 
on mcclim before clim-clx doesn't actually work.

This solution seems very fragile. Is there a better way? Should I create 
a cvs diff?

My vague recollection is that it used to work with older ASDF, but I
haven't tried to confirm that.

The general understanding is that systems one would want to depend on
should have their own .asd file anyway.

I have just removed the dependency entirely now.


Please test (beware anoncvs lag),

No changes, at least to closure.asd, in a recent (last 10 minutes, 
maybe) checkout. I'll try again later.

Still no changes to anoncvs, so I made them manually based on the 
archive of the commits mailing list, and that seems to have fixed it. 
Thanks.
